The James Webb Space Telescope is building on Hubble’s deep fields to see light that is even older and redder—from some of the first galaxies ever to form. Together, the two telescopes are revealing more of the universe’s history. Credit: NASA, ESA, STScI. | Space Telescope Science Institute | Facebook

Only the James Webb Space Telescope can provide such a detailed view of L1527 IRS—a star still in the process of formation. While the star is shrouded in dust, material has been ejected away from it in an hourglass shape. This is a science visualization of the protostar, which was observed by Webb in 2022.

Zoom into The Tarantula Nebula | James Webb Space Telescope Support FriendsofNASA.org | This video takes the viewer on a journey that zooms through space to reveal the Tarantula Nebula. Thousands of never-before-seen young stars are spotted in the stellar nursery called 30 Doradus, captured by the NASA/European Space Agency/Canadian Space Agency James Webb Space Telescope. It is nicknamed the Tarantula Nebula for the appearance of its dusty filaments in previous telescope images, the nebula has

The James Webb Space Telescope has wowed again—showing not one, but FOUR shells of dust in a star system known as Apep for the first time. Previous observatories only detected one. Two aging Wolf-Rayet stars produce and eject these dusty shells (and are shown as a single central pinpoint of light). Researchers using Webb nailed down the stars’ orbit around one another—a lengthy 190 years. The next longest orbit for a Wolf-Rayet binary is about 30 years, and most have orbits between two and 10 ye
