NASA's James Webb Space Telescope James Webb Space Telescope
This often-read and now highly-cited article in Space Science Reviews, published in 2006, described the scientific capabilities and planned implementation of James Webb Space Telescope (JWST). Today, as the first images taken by JWST have been publicly released, we are looking back at the orig...
Timeline photos
Sneak a peek at the deepest and sharpest infrared image of the early universe ever taken — all in a day’s work for the Webb telescope. (Literally! Webb was able to capture this image in less than one day, while similar deep field images from Hubble can take multiple weeks.)
This is Webb’s first image released as we begin to : nasa.gov/webbfirstimages/
If you held a grain of sand up to the sky at arm’s length, that tiny speck is the size of Webb’s view in this image. Imagine — galaxies galore within a grain, including light from galaxies that traveled billions of years to us! Why do some of the galaxies in this image appear bent? The combined mass of this galaxy cluster acts as a “gravitational lens,” bending light rays from more distant galaxies behind it, magnifying them.
This image isn’t the farthest back we’ve ever observed. Non-infrared missions like COBE and WMAP saw the universe much closer to the Big Bang (about 380,000 years after), when there was only microwave background radiation, but no stars or galaxies yet. Webb sees a few hundred million years after the Big Bang.
The James Webb Space Telescope is an international collaboration between NASA - National Aeronautics and Space Administration, the ESA - European Space Agency and the Canadian Space Agency. The Space Telescope Science Institute is the science and mission operations center for Webb.
Tune in tomorrow at 10:30 am ET (14:30 UTC) for the reveal of the rest of Webb’s First Images!

Springer Nature is honored to have been collaborating with Jørgen Christensen-Dalsgaard as one of the founding editors of the journal Living Reviews in Solar Physics, co-author – with Conny Aerts and Donald W. Kurtz – of the seminal book Asteroseismology (2010), and the recent review article "Solar structure and evolution" (2021), among many other works. Roger Ulrich has published for more than three decades in the journal Solar Physics, while both Conny Aerts and Jørgen Christensen-Dalsgaard have also contributed invited articles in The Astronomy and Astrophysics Review.

Galaxies living in rich environments are suffering different perturbations able to drastically affect their evolution. Among these, ram pressure stripping, i.e. the pressure exerted by the hot and dense intracluster medium (ICM) on galaxies moving at high velocity within the cluster gravitational potential well, is a key process able to remove their interstellar medium (ISM) and quench their activity of star formation. This review is aimed at describing this physical mechanism in different environments, from rich clusters of galaxies to loose and compact groups.

📢 Breaking news: Meet the Black Hole at the Centre of our Galaxy!
Today astronomers have unveiled the first image of the supermassive black hole at the centre of our own Milky Way galaxy, called Sgr A*. The image was produced by a global research team called the Event Horizon Telescope (EHT) Collaboration.
“It is very exciting for ESO to have been playing such an important role in unravelling the mysteries of black holes, and of Sgr A* in particular, over so many years,” commented ESO Director General Xavier Barcons. “ESO not only contributed to the EHT observations through the ALMA and APEX facilities but also enabled, with its other observatories in Chile, some of the previous breakthrough observations of the Galactic centre.”
The next post has a summary of the results or you can read the full press release here: https://www.eso.org/public/news/eso2208-eht-mw/
