Read previewNASA's James Webb Space Telescope floored astronomers and spectators across the globe when it released its first full-color images. Even those preliminary snapshots revealed countless stars, galaxies, and fine details that hadn't been seen before.

In the JWST image, you can see galaxies in the background that were invisible to HubbleA few galaxies that are clearly visible in the JWST image, but not the Hubble image. The JWST image also revealed the stellar nurseries created as galaxies mergeThe JWST image shows a region of gas compressed between merging galaxies.

The James Webb Space Telescope can capture a more complete view of galaxies, stars, and planets. Before Webb, astronomers had another workhorse cosmic observatory: the Hubble Space Telescope. Webb is 100 times stronger than Hubble, which allows astronomers to peer even further into space.

In the 19th and early 20th centuries, astronomers catalogued the universe on glass photographic plates. Compared to faint objects stamped on plates, the James Webb Space Telescope's images show dramatic improvements in telescope technology. The exposures were made on glass plates coated with photosensitive emulsions, with astronomers later developing the plates like film in a darkroom. Compared with Webb's infrared images, photographic plates of the same parts of the night sky show how developments in technology led to clearer and deeper views of the cosmos. Webb's clear views of interacting galaxies offer sharper detail than faint glass plate imagesA glass plate image of Stephan's Quintet taken in 1974, left.
