Are James Webb Space Telescope images really so colorful?
While large portions of the pillars appear dark red in the Hubble image, the JWST image depicts most of the formation in golden and orange tones. This means that the visual light emitted by the pillars is longer wavelength (red) but a bit closer to the middle of the spectrum of infrared light depicted in the image.
James Webb Space Telescope watches planet-forming dust shells zooming through space
The shells of carbon-rich dust are expanding outward into space at the breakneck velocity of 1,600 miles per second.
Step inside a virtual reality art piece inspired by the James Webb Space Telescope
Artist Ashley Zelinskie's new VR work is called "Twin Quasar." Two roads diverge between a pair of quasars, and I'm sorry I can't travel both — actually, wait, I can travel both.
James Webb Space Telescope sees little red dots feeding black holes: 'This is how you solve a universe-breaking problem'
The James Webb Space Telescope's ancient "little red dot" galaxies have been seen as a sign of "broken cosmology." Feeding supermassive black holes may have come to the rescue.
