*Warning: You can see the first images of the James Webb Telescope here!
A collection of color images and the first spectroscopic data James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) This Tuesday (12) will air at 11:30am (Brazil time) in a live broadcast by NASA in partnership with the European (ESA) and Canadian (CSA) space agencies.
On Monday (11), US President Joe Biden released one of the images collected by the equipment. Published as a preview of the material, the photo shows the galaxy conglomerate SMACS 0723, seen 4.6 billion years ago.
Four more photos are expected this Tuesday. Three are from the Carina and Southern Ring nebulae (7,600 and 2,000 light-years away, respectively) and the Stephan Quintet, a compact group of five galaxies located 290 million light-years from Earth.
This Tuesday’s release (12) can be viewed in the video below:
The final image is expected to include analysis that reveals the chemical composition of the atmosphere of a planet orbiting a star 1,150 light-years from us. Astronomers around the planet hope the equipment will allow us to find new places to harbor life.
Those who want to watch the broadcast can follow it on NASA TV, the agency’s application and website or Facebook platforms, twitter, YouTube, Twitch and Daily Motion. As content is made available, it will also be available on the agency’s social networks.
Launched in December 2021, the James Webb Space Telescope will use infrared mapping technology to increase our ability to look into space around us.
