James Webb Space Telescope Spotted 'Non-Natural' Object Moving Towards Earth?
The rumor claimed that JWST observed the object changing its trajectory, implying it was some sort of spaceship.
'That's weird': James Webb Space Telescope spies a strange galaxy outshining its stars
The James Webb Space Telescope has spotted the galaxy named GS-NDG-9422 — a realm that existed about one billion years after the Big Bang, and indeed one that may provide the missing link of galaxy evolution between the universe's first stars and well-structured galaxies.
James Webb Space Telescope deciphers the origins of Pluto's icy moon Charon
Using the James Webb Space Telescope, astronomers have discovered carbon dioxide and hydrogen peroxide at the surface of Pluto's largest moon, Charon, potentially shedding light on its origins.
The first shocking images of the new James Webb Space Telescope
On May 20, 1990, the Hubble Space Telescope sent its first image to Earth. This photo turned out to be 50% sharper than images from ground-based telescopes. In August of that year, Hubble made one of its first discoveries,
James Webb Space Telescope Captures Saturn's Changing Season
Imagery of Saturn captured by the James Webb Space Telescope is superimposed over an image captured by Hubble. "Yellows represent bright and warm parts of Saturn’s atmosphere, while the purple areas are cooler and darker,
James Webb Telescope eyes ‘missing link’ to universe’s origins and the first stars
It actually was a long time ago in a galaxy far, far away. The James Webb Space Telescope has detected a peculiar region of space that could be a “missing link” to what’s understood about the early days of space and its original stars.
In odd galaxy, NASA's Webb finds potential missing link to first stars
Looking deep into the early universe with NASA's James Webb Space Telescope, astronomers have found something unprecedented: a galaxy with an odd light signature, which they attribute to its gas outshining its stars.
