NASA Administrator Bill Nelson will provide remarks, and the image will simultaneously be released to the public via NASA's website, NASA said in a statement. The Monday release will be the first time the public will get a glimpse of a full-color, science-grade image from the James Webb Space Telescope, the most complex and expensive observatory ever built.Īnnounced on Sunday, July 10, the event comes less than 24 hours ahead of the main release of the first science-grade images from the observatory, which is scheduled to begin at 9.45 a.m. EDT (2100 GMT), courtesy of NASA, or directly on NASA TV. You can watch the Monday reveal live here on at 5 p.m.

Also on the agenda is observations of an exoplanet called WASP-96 b, although JWST won't be offering an image of the distant world. On Friday (July 8), the agency announced that the reveal will include views of the Carina and Southern Ring nebulas, as well as Stephan's Quintet of closely packed galaxies. The space agency has previously hinted which celestial objects space fans can look forward to seeing in these images. EDT (1430 GMT) today (July 12), which you can watch here at courtesy of NASA. But the best is yet to come during the official image release that is set to commence at 10:30 a.m. Scientists and space enthusiasts alike have been virtually star-struck by Webb's sharp gaze and the plethora of distant objects the telescope revealed. (Image credit: NASA, ESA, CSA, and STScI)Īn avalanche of images from the magnificent James Webb Space Telescope is set to be unleashed onto the world today after a taster glimpse into the deepest universe was unveiled on Monday (July 11) by U.S. The first publicly released science-quality image from NASA's James Webb Space Telescope, revealed on July 11, 2022, is the deepest infrared view of the universe to date.

These zones are full of dust and best visible in infrared light, which can peer through that. Webb also observed a wheel-shaped galaxy, called the Cartwheel, showing unprecedented detail in the galaxy's structure. Using infrared light, Webb detected individual stars within the galaxy's star-forming regions, and more young star clusters surrounding the galaxy's central supermassive black hole. Tolkien's "Lord of the Rings" prequel "The Silmarillion." The star's light took about 12.9 billion years to reach Earth and is now visible in a bit more detail than previous imaging from a Hubble Space Telescope deep field image.
Webb then turned its attention to the most distant star, called Earendel, after a character in J.R.R. If confirmed, those galaxies are quite early, as they were in existence just 200 million years after the Big Bang. Not long after, intriguing new results suggests astronomers are blasting past that metric with possible detections up to redshift 20. One week after the James Webb Space Telescope released the first science images, astronomers detected galaxies at redshift 13, equating to about 300 million years after the Big Bang. The James Webb Space Telescope has just barely started operations, but is breaking records and performing intriguing observations in its first few weeks.
