#JWST reaches new milestone in quest for distant #galaxies.
The light from these galaxies has taken more than 13.4 billion years to reach us implying they existed 400 million years after the big bang, when the #universe was only 2% of its current age.
These galaxies are extremely faint because of their great distance from us. Astronomers can now explore their properties, thanks to JWST's exquisite sensitivity.

A Cosmic Tarantula, Caught by NASA’s Webb
Nicknamed the Tarantula Nebula for the appearance of its dusty filaments in previous telescope images, the nebula has long been a favorite for astronomers studying star formation.Jamie Adkins (NASA)

Da hat jemand eine "Compare-Seite" der gestern veröffentlichten #JWST Bilder und die entsprechenden Vergleichsbilder von #Hubble zusammen gebaut - cool !
