Exactly 100 days ago NASA revealed the first images from James Webb Space Telescope. Carina nebula, SMACS 0723, WASP-96b, Southern Ring Nebula and Stephan’s Quintet. Since then we have had a lot of great images, science papers and other releases from JWST. So here’s an overview of everything you need to know about James Webb’s discoveries in its first 100 days.
In this video, we accumulated all the major things that Webb gave us so far. How it changed our understanding of galaxy evolution in the early stages of the Universe. New details about the Cosmic Noon. Insights into exoplanets and their atmospheres. Impressive images of nebulae and galaxies. And much more. Enjoy!
More JWST will surely follow in the next If you want to get a curated selection of the most important space and astronomy news every week, subscribe to our Weekly Email Newsletter and get magazine-size ad-free news directly from Fraser Cain.
