Webb may be used to gather information on the dimming light of star KIC 8462852, which was discovered in 2015, and has some abnormal light-curve properties. [161] Additionally, it will be able to tell if an exoplanet has methane in its atmosphere, allowing astronomers to determine whether or not the methane is a biosignature. [162] [163]
JADES-GS-z13-0 is a high-redshift Lyman-break galaxy discovered by the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) during NIRCam imaging for the JWST Advanced Deep Extragalactic Survey (JADES) on 29 September 2022.
Webb's First Deep Field was taken by the telescope's Near-Infrared Camera (NIRCam) and is a composite produced from images at different wavelengths, totalling 12.5 hours of exposure time. [3] [4] SMACS 0723 is a galaxy cluster visible from Earth's Southern Hemisphere, [5] and has often been examined by Hubble and other telescopes in search of ...
Since launching on Dec. 25, 2021, the James Webb Space Telescope has reported several important discoveries, including the confirmation of light from galaxies that date back to less than 400 ...
The James Webb Space Telescope has produced its second revelatory image in as many days. Scientists using the observatory have discovered a tightly-packed "knot" of at least three galaxies that ...
The James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) is an international 21st-century space observatory that was launched on 25 December 2021. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] It is intended to be the premier observatory of the 2020s, combining the largest mirror yet on a near-infrared space telescope with a suite of technologically advanced instruments from around the world.
The James Webb Space Telescope captured images of the galaxy 70 million light years away. Scientists earlier had thought the energy heating the dust clouds came from radiation caused by the black ...
AzTECC71 is a dusty star-forming galaxy discovered by the James Webb Space Telescope, reported by NASA in early December 2023. [1] This red ghost-like galaxy has been optically invisible to other telescopes including the Hubble Space Telescope; astronomers referred to them as “Hubble-dark galaxies”.
