NASA's Webb Space Telescope is the most powerful observatory ever launched into space. With its unprecedented infrared imaging and spectroscopic capabilities, this trailblazing telescope has discovered a new collection of galaxies across space and time, as well as revealing their intriguing characteristics. Join Dr. Kumari for a showcase of Webb’s magnificent discoveries about galaxies in both the near and distant universe.

Good job 👏 👍 It's a great big and amazing universe.
Throwing my hat in for a great presentation!
Wonderful presentation.
All I think 😂 is GENESIS 1V1.

Maravilhoso poder ver e participar dessas descobertas.
First to say: Good ! :)
Hey steal my idea but you should use the wave length filters blue red yellow green purple whatever wavelength make each filter into a 3D “topographic” map for the visually impaired. it might help give the depth of understanding we get from colors. Like hey this bump is here in this wavelength but not in this one, get it? Bad idea or good lmk
I'm confused, so Herbig-Haro 211 is not the same as Herbig-Haro 24?

The James Webb Space Telescope launch has evoked a prevailing sentiment of heightened anticipation, only to deliver a result that can best be described as underwhelming. As we watched with bated breath, hoping for a revelation of monumental proportions, we were met with a disheartening lack of clarity, a faint echo of the venerable Hubble era with an added touch of nuance. This serves as a stark reminder of the disheartening reality that human progress often struggles to keep pace with our loftiest aspirations.
It's ironic that you're criticizing the James Webb Space Telescope, one of the most groundbreaking scientific instruments ever built, while sitting comfortably at home. It's a marvel of engineering and international cooperation, and it's helping us to learn more about the universe than we ever thought possible.
I understand that the telescope is complex and that it may be difficult to understand its significance without some background knowledge. However, I encourage you to learn more about it. There are many resources available online and in libraries. The telescope is a truly remarkable achievement, and it has the potential to revolutionize our understanding of the universe.
The greatest scientific questions can only be answered through colossal international collaboration, which was previously unimaginable due to the limitations of communication and infrastructure. Scientists and the educated understand this, but the public must be sold on the idea. I would argue that the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) was marketed realistically, and that it is now performing above and beyond expectations, delivering more data than even the experts can handle.
In other words, the JWST is a scientific triumph. Scientists just have to hire or utilize media companies/departments to sell their ideas to the public or government sectors too, in order to get funding and support, and they often do this by making grandiose promises. In the case of the JWST, I would argue that they have delivered on those promises. The telescope is exceeding expectations and providing us with new insights into the universe every day.
This is all apparent to those of us who can see the 'big picture', and put forth the efforts needed to provide such an ongoing feat of understanding of a previously unexplored realm of scientific understanding.
I would suggest that you be more humble about your own knowledge and expertise. It's perfectly fine to admit that you don't understand something. That's how we learn. But to criticize something as groundbreaking as the James Webb Space Telescope without even trying to understand it is simply arrogant and ignorant.
