Neil deGrasse Tyson said that the James Webb Space Telescope has given scientists new abilities, including a means to look at the universe in a new way.
With RGB coding on computers, deGrasse Tyson notes that the brain makes an image in three bands of light and assigns a color to each one before putting them together to reach the full color image. He said that can be done with any three bands anywhere in the spectrum.
But when examining galaxies from back when the universe was fewer than a billion years old, the question arose: Are scientists looking back at some of the earliest or the oldest galaxies?
