The James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) has been no stranger to taking things to the extreme since its launch on Christmas day 2021, observing early galaxies billions of light-years away that ...

A team of astronomers using the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) recently spotted six new rogue worlds in a young nebula. The findings are detailed in a study that has been accepted for ...

Astronomers have found six new worlds that look like planets, but formed like stars. These so-called rogue worlds are between five and 15 times the mass of Jupiter, and one of them may even host ...

These observatories, such as the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST), are amazing feats of engineering that have required billions of dollars and decades of work. But what if we could access an even ...

Wallpaper apps and websites are tiring to trawl through, which is why I find the most original, creative, and stunning ...

This stunning new mosaic of images from JWST showcases the nearby star-forming cluster, NGC 1333. The nebula is in the Perseus molecular cloud, and located approximately 960 light-years away. Credit: ...

If this work is correct, the JWST has revealed an early universe not quite as we expected it, but not so badly different as to throw physics into crisis. Before we decide our models of how ...

Using JWST, astronomers have caught six 'rogue', planet-sized objects, zooming untethered to any star, wild and free through interstellar space, in the gorgeous environment of a star-forming ...

This composite image of Arp 107, created with data from the James Webb Space Telescope’s NIRCam (Near-InfraRed Camera) and MIRI (Mid-InfraRed Instrument), reveals a wealth of information about ...

This image shows a small portion of the field observed by NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope’s NIRCam (Near-Infrared Camera) for the Cosmic Evolution Early Release Science (CEERS) survey.

This telescope would use the sun itself. To give some perspective on how powerful a sun-based telescope could be, consider JWST. With a mirror that's 21.3 feet (6.5 meters) in diameter ...
