Centuries-old supernova guides James Webb Space Telescope through an interstellar gap
"We think every dense, dusty region that we see, and most of the ones we don't see, look like this on the inside — we just have never been able to look inside them before."
Astronomers solve mystery of "little red dots" spotted by James Webb Space Telescope
A team of astronomers sifted through James Webb Space Telescope data from multiple surveys to compile one of the largest samples of “little red dots” (LRDs) to date. (NASA / ESA / CSA / STScI / Dale Kocevski (Colby College))
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.
Are James Webb Space Telescope images really so colorful?
How do images taken by the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) appear so colorful, and where do the colors come from?
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.
