One of the key reasons the JWST image of Uranus looks so different from the image taken by the Voyager 2 spacecraft in 1985 is that the prior mission viewed that planet in observable light, while the JWST sees the ice giant in infrared. This image of Uranus, captured by Webb’s Near-I...

The first infrared image produced by NASA's James Webb Space Telescope. /NASA NASA on Tuesday showcased the first full-color images captured by the James Webb Space Telescope, also known as JWST or Webb, following its six-month process to unfurl all the components of the newly launched appara...
Over thesummer, the JWST captured the sharpestview yet of a ring nebula. According to NASA, a ring nebula is an excellent example of a planetary nebula, which includes an expanding shell of glowing gas expelled by a star late in its life. ...
We present the application of the image coaddition algorithm, upsampling and point-spread function (PSF) deconvolution coaddition (UPDC), for stacking multiple exposure images captured by the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) Near-Infrared Camera. By addressing the PSF effect, UPDC provides visually...
