Happy James Webb image release day!!!!

This is Stephan‘s Quintet, released by the team seated in the ESA. What a day for science and humanity! 🥳🔭
Did anyone else take note of the amount of women involved in this project? We have a long way to go, but there is some positive change when we keep together and keep going.
See all five images released today at: https://www.nasa.gov/webbfirstimages

Who else is stoked for the image releases??? 😱🥳

Today‘s teaser- an image taken in the space covered by a single grain of sand, held at arm‘s length to the sky. This is galaxy cluster SMACS 0723.

Chrissyreadit I am wishing I had a picture marked up to tell me what I‘m seeing! And I loved the comparison to the Hubble to see how far the Webb is in technology! 2y
AmyG I am so fascinated by this picture. I can‘t wait to see more. What @Chrissyreadit said….I‘d love to know what I am looking at. 2y
MerlinTheSlightlyAwkward @Chrissyreadit @AmyG agreed! Growing up with Hubble and being constantly amazed, I feel that childlike wonder again looking at these. The presentation this morning walked through a little bit of what some of these images show. It was incredible! Hopefully that gets posted. I‘ll follow up here if it does! 🔭 (edited) 2y

MerlinTheSlightlyAwkward @Chrissyreadit @AmyG It looks like ESA has a pretty good overview, image by image at https://www.esa.int/ESA_Multimedia/Sets/Webb_First_Images/(result_type)/images. It would be so cool to have an interactive app for exploring these images, though! Here‘s to hoping it doesn‘t take long for that to be reality ☕️ 2y
AmyG This all puts life into perspective. Kind of mind blowing. 2y
MerlinTheSlightlyAwkward @AmyG Completely ☺️ 2y
