No human has ever seen the star nursery called NGC 3324, seven light years away, so brilliantly and in such detail. We may never get a better view. The Near-Infrared Camera (NIRCam) and Mid-Infrared Instrument (MIRI) on the new James Webb telescope has given us new eyes (infrared ones, at that) with which to see and understand the universe. The telescope was 20 times over budget: I would have canceled it. This time I'm glad such budgeting common sense failed.
Below that image is Stephen's quintet, a fistful of younger galaxies bursting from their nurseries to take their place in the universe. Webb will tell us more than any other mission about OUR place.
I listen about the spiral galaxies and explore many things. I am also writing articles on tech-related issues such as How Long Does iOs 15 Take To Install? , laptop issues, How to use DSLR cameras, etc.
