Released for the first time ever taken by the James Webb Space Telescope. This is the most distant and clearest infrared image of the universe yet. Pictured is the SMACS 0723 galaxy cluster.

On July 11, US President Biden announced the first

full-color deep space image of the universe taken by the James Webb Space Telescope

at the White House.

NASA said

this is the most distant and clearest image of the universe so far. Infrared image

NASA introduced

The image shows the "SMACS 0723" galaxy cluster

which contains thousands of galaxies

The image shows the galaxy cluster as it looked about 4.6 billion years ago

Because it is about 4.6 billion light years away from us

The light that the telescope is now receiving is the light it emitted a long time ago

On July 12, NASA released a number of

high-definition deep space images of the universe taken by the Webb Space Telescope

"If you put a grain of sand at arm's length At your fingertips, this is what you're looking at - just a tiny speck in the universe." NASA Administrator Bill Nelson introduced images captured by the Webb Space Telescope on Sunday. The first full-color deep space image of the universe is like this. For example,

means that

looking at this area of ​​the universe with a telescope is equivalent to looking at a grain of sand on our fingertips.

Associate Professor Cai Zheng of the Department of Astronomy at Tsinghua University once said.

The Webb Space Telescope is currently detecting Some of the light that comes

comes from very distant galaxies

For example, the light that was emitted 13 billion years ago

has only been captured by telescopes now

At that time, the universe was still in its infancy

Therefore, humans are expected to see it through telescopes

What it looked like when the universe was in its infancy

NASA said in a bulletin released on the 12th

The first images observed by the Webb Space Telescope

Tell the story by showing the various stages of the history of the universe The story of the unknown universe

There are both exoplanets

and the most distant observable galaxy in the early universe

"A grain of sand" contains a galaxy cluster

A picture contains the most distant history of the universe

This piece above our heads The sky

is always worthy of our admiration and exploration
