Bad Things Posted July 11, 2022 Share Posted July 11, 2022 (edited) Here we go! Quote The first image from the $10 billion (NZ$16.3b) James Webb Space Telescope is the farthest humanity has ever seen in both time and distance, closer to the dawn of time and the edge of the universe. That image will be followed on Wednesday by the release of four more galactic beauty shots from the telescope’s initial outward gazes. The “deep field” image released at a White House event is filled with lots of stars, with massive galaxies in the foreground and faint and extremely distant galaxies peeking through here and there. Part of the image is light from not too long after the Big Bang, which was 13.8 billion years ago. https://www.nasa.gov/image-feature/goddard/2022/nasa-s-webb-delivers-deepest-infrared-image-of-universe-yet https://webbtelescope.org/news/first-images Edited July 11, 2022 by Bad Things 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TBBills Posted July 11, 2022 Share Posted July 11, 2022 (edited) So is this what tomorrow's picture was supposed to be? Anyone have a high res version? Here we go Nasa has 5k images you can download of this which allow you to see the detail in even the smallest (Furthest) of galaxies. https://www.bing.com/ck/a?!&&p=721e45ebb946bb56JmltdHM9MTY1NzU4Mzk5MSZpZ3VpZD0zYTAwYWQ5Ny1iZjk2LTQzZmEtOGM2Zi0wOWE0ZTU1MGEwMzMmaW5zaWQ9NTE3Mg&ptn=3&hsh=3&fclid=8cfa0bd8-0175-11ed-a9e9-78a0f7caddf7&u=a1aHR0cHM6Ly93d3cud2ViYi5uYXNhLmdvdi9jb250ZW50L211bHRpbWVkaWEvaW1hZ2VzLmh0bWw&ntb=1 Edited July 12, 2022 by TBBills Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sherpa Posted July 12, 2022 Share Posted July 12, 2022 A small point, but maybe illustrative. Webb is an IR telescope. The raw data that it transmits to earth is in pure IR form. It is then "adjusted" to make it make sense to people. That takes time. In no way that that make it less accurate or suggest that the data is doctored. It is simply adjusting colors wo show various IR strength returns. Again, that takes a bit of time. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WhoTom Posted July 13, 2022 Share Posted July 13, 2022 Quote Webb’s image covers a patch of sky approximately the size of a grain of sand held at arm’s length by someone on the ground – and reveals thousands of galaxies in a tiny sliver of vast universe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bad Things Posted July 13, 2022 Share Posted July 13, 2022 (edited) Fun fact. One of the new images from the telescope shows the galaxy group “Stephan’s Quintet”. These are the same galaxies shown at the beginning of "It's a Wonderful Life." Quote Stephan’s Quintet, a visual grouping of five galaxies, is best known for being prominently featured in the holiday classic film, “It’s a Wonderful Life.” Today, NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope reveals Stephan’s Quintet in a new light. https://www.nasa.gov/image-feature/goddard/2022/nasa-s-webb-sheds-light-on-galaxy-evolution-black-holes Edited July 14, 2022 by Bad Things 2 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
