The big galaxy in the foreground is named LEDA 2046648, and is seen just over a billion years back in time, while most of the others lie even farther away, and hence are seen even further back in time. ESA/Webb, NASA & CSA, A. Martel.

Astronomers And James Webb Telescope Observe Creation Of The First “Unpolluted” Galaxies

Eddie Gonzales Jr. – MessageToEagle.com – Using JWST, astronomers can now peer back in time and approach the epoch when the first galaxies were probably created. The James Webb Space

The Phantom Galaxy is a "favorite target for astronomers studying the origin and structure of galactic spirals," NASA and the ESA said.

Webb Telescope Nearly Set To Explore The Solar System

Eddie Gonzales Jr. – MessageToEagle.com – As NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope moves through the final phases of commissioning its science instruments, we have also begun working on

his is an artist's impression of the Jupiter-size extrasolar planet, HD 189733b, being eclipsed by its parent star. Astronomers using the Hubble Space Telescope have measured carbon dioxide and carbon monoxide in the planet's atmosphere. The planet is a "hot Jupiter," which is so close to its star that it completes an orbit in only 2.2 days. The planet is too hot for life as we know it. But under the right conditions, on a more Earth-like world, carbon dioxide can indicate the presence of extraterrestrial life. This observation demonstrates that chemical biotracers can be detected by space telescope observations. Credits: ESA, NASA, M. Kornmesser (ESA/Hubble), and STScI

NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope Will Study Jupiter’s Great Red Spot

MessageToEagle.com | June 26, 2018

MessageToEagle.com – NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope, the most ambitious and complex space observatory ever built, will study the Jupiter’s Great Red Spot to help scientists better understand the

The James Webb Space Telescope will be a large infrared telescope with a 6.5-meter primary mirror. JWST will be the premier observatory of the next decade, that will study every phase in the history of our Universe, ranging from the first luminous glows after the Big Bang, to the formation of solar systems capable of supporting life on planets like Earth, to the evolution of our own Solar System.
