This first image from NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope is the deepest and sharpest infrared image of the distant universe to date. Known as Webb’s First Deep Field, this image of galaxy cluster SMACS 0723 is overflowing with detail. Thousands of galaxies – including the faintest objects ever observed in the infrared – have appeared in Webb’s view for the first time. This slice of the vast universe covers a patch of sky approximately the size of a grain of sand held at arm’s length by someone on the ground.
The first compact solar system discovered was the Kepler-11 system. It’s a compact solar system, which means it has planets very close to its sun. There are five planets by its sun, closer to its Sun than Mercury is to ours.
Juno’s shot of Jupiter. Every pixel on the picture is 9,4 square kilometer.
