"Unveiling the Unseen: Experience JWST's Unprecedented Depths"

The James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) is now fully operational and has already revealed galaxies beyond the limits of the Hubble Space Telescope. With its longer-wavelength capabilities and ability to observe in the infrared portion of the spectrum, the JWST can see much farther into the Universe's past. The JWST Advanced Deep Extragalactic Survey (JADES) is using the JWST to observe a specific region of the sky for an extended period, providing the deepest view of the Universe to date. JADES has already discovered galaxies more distant than the previous record-holder identified by Hubble. The collaboration is guaranteed over 770 hours of observing time, which will reveal even more remarkable highlights and provide a better understanding of the early Universe.

Webb Telescope Reveals Secrets of Early Universe's Star Formation

The James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) has revealed secrets of the early universe and uncovered hundreds of gas bubbles where young, hot stars are forming and growing within the bars of a barred spiral galaxy. The JWST advanced deep extragalactic survey (JADES) utilized Webb’s deep-field surveying abilities to create a deep field that shows over 45,000 galaxies and uncovers some of the secrets of the early universe. JADES is one of the largest programs to have been awarded time during Webb’s first year of science, with 32 days of that first year being devoted to collecting data for JADES and creating incredible deep fields.
