| 説明 | A galactic panoramic This multi-wavelength image combines eight colors of near-infrared light captured by Webb with three colors of ultraviolet and visible light from Hubble. It shows — in unprecedented detail and exquisite depth — a universe full of galaxies, many of which were previously unseen by Hubble or large ground-based telescopes.While this shot is just a portion of what will be the complete wide field covered by this Webb program, it’s already unveiling wonders. The faintest objects here are about 1 billion times fainter than what can be seen with our eyes.Image Credits: NASA, ESA, CSA, A. Pagan (STScI) & R. Jansen (ASU).Science: R. Jansen, J. Summers, R.

Willmer (UofA); and the PEARLS team Image description: On a black background, a white border outlines an irregularly shaped, mostly rectangular area. Within the outline lie hundreds of galaxies of various shapes, colors and sizes. Two white boxes on the left side of the field enclose groups of galaxies. From each box, a line extends out beyond the border of the galaxy field to an enlarged image of the galaxy group, revealing streams of stars and tidal tails. On the right side, a third box encloses a spiral galaxy. A line extends beyond the border of the galaxy field to an enlarged image of the spiral galaxy. A few stars are also scattered across the image. Some have Webb’s characteristic 8-point diffraction spikes, while others have additional spikes due to a combination of image exposures. |
