The James Webb Space Telescope has been blowing minds since it went into operation in July of 2022. Located nearly 1 million miles from Earth, the massive mirrors allow us to peer way back in time, to some of the earliest moments of the universe.
A brand new image was just shared from the telescope, taken in the star cluster NGC 602. It’s approximately 200,000 light years from us, and was taken with Webb’s NIRCam (Near-InfraRed Camera) and MIRI (Mid-InfraRed Instrument.
It’s a gorgeous new photograph, and captures a “Stellar Nursery”, where galaxies are born.
