The James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) represents a monumental leap in astronomical capability, revolutionizing our understanding of the universe. Launched on December 25, 2021, this cutting-edge observatory, a collaboration between NASA, the European Space Agency, and the Canadian Space Agency, builds upon the legacy of the Hubble Space Telescope.
Equipped with advanced infrared cameras and a 6.5-meter primary mirror, JWST captures detailed images and spectra of distant cosmic phenomena. Its discoveries, including the detection of water vapor in the atmosphere of the exoplanet WASP-96b and observations of early galaxies, provide unprecedented insights into star formation, galaxy evolution, and the potential for extraterrestrial life, transforming our grasp of the cosmos and paving the way for future explorations.
