Are James Webb Space Telescope images really so colorful?
When Pagan and DePasquale first receive the images, they appear in black and white. The colors are added to the image later, as the data from the various filters are translated into the spectrum of visible light, Pagan explained. The longest wavelengths appear red, while the shorter wavelengths are blue or purple.
Powerful Webb Telescope captures photos of one of the earliest supernova ever seen
The James Webb Space Telescope captured photos of one of the earliest supernovas ever seen using infrared technology, and creating a time lapse of the phenomena.
Centuries-old supernova guides James Webb Space Telescope through an interstellar gap
The James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) has captured the first exquisite images of an interstellar patch of sky, about 11,000 light-years away in the constellation Cassiopeia.

James Webb Space Telescope watches planet-forming dust shells zooming through space
The shells of carbon-rich dust are expanding outward into space at the breakneck velocity of 1,600 miles per second.
James Webb Space Telescope discovers one of the earliest 'truly gargantuan' supernovas ever seen
The James Webb Space Telescope has spotted one of the earliest and most distant supernovas, marking the death of a stellar monster 20 times the mass of the sun.
Cassiopeia A showcases supernova remnants captured by James Webb Space Telescope
The remnant cloud known as Cassiopeia A illustrates the final stage of a star's life. In images captured by the James Webb Space Telescope, one can see the still-hot filaments of the supernova remnant. It is estimated that the supernova explosion that created this remnant would have been visible in the sky from Earth about 350 years ago.
James Webb telescope captures 1st 'mid-infrared' flare from Milky Way's supermassive black hole
The James Webb Space Telescope has captured a mid-infrared picture of Sagittarius A*, filling in a long-standing gap in observations..
Astronomers Use James Webb to Unveil a Planet Unlike Any Other in Our Solar System
Astronomers using the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) have uncovered a planet so extraordinary it has defied all existing classifications. The planet, GJ 1214 b, is located a mere 48 light-years away from Earth in the constellation Ophiuchus and has become a focal point for groundbreaking research.
