"Synergy of James Webb Instruments: Unveiling Breathtaking Space Vistas"

TL;DR Summary
The James Webb Space Telescope has captured stunning images of the irregular galaxy NGC 6822 using its Near-InfraRed Camera (NIRCam) and Mid-InfraRed Instrument (MIRI). These instruments probe different parts of the electromagnetic spectrum, allowing them to observe different components of the galaxy. By combining the views from NIRCam and MIRI, scientists can create detailed images that highlight features like dust clouds and areas of active star formation. The images provide insights into the low metallicity of NGC 6822 and the distribution of heavy elements in the universe.
