JWST's image reveals previously invisible young galaxies.
This image of the Hubble Ultra Deep Field was taken by the Near-Infrared Camera on NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope.
The Webb image observes the field at depths comparable to Hubble — revealing galaxies of similar faintness — in just one-tenth as much observing time.NASA's James Webb Space Telescope has turned its sharp eyes on a distant patch of sky made famous by its predecessor.
