Nasa just shared new pictures taken by the $10 billion James Webb Space Telescope on Monday, and it’s filled with galaxies and other heavenly creations and is the deepest ever image mankind has had of the cosmos.
We praise God for the advancement of science and technology that now we can peek so far into the universe. There will be a release of four more galactic beauty images on Tuesday shot from the telescope’s initial outward gazes.
The “deep field” image that was released at a White House event was full of stars, galaxies in the foreground, and distant galaxies peeking out.
When the images were seen by President Joe Biden, he couldn’t stop himself from saying that it showed, “the oldest documented light in the history of the universe from over 13 billion — let me say that again — 13 billion years ago. It’s hard to fathom.”
The dawn of a new era in astronomy has begun as the world gets its first look at the full capabilities of the NASA/ESA/CSA James Webb Space Telescope. The telescope’s first full-colour images & spectroscopic data were released today. Read more here https://t.co/kdD6ew5306 or👇 pic.twitter.com/BXYYHq8yY9

The word of God tells us that the universe was created by God. Amos 9:6 “Who builds his upper chambers in the heavens and founds his vault upon the earth; who calls for the waters of the sea and pours them out upon the surface of the earth— the Lord is his name.”

The image was filled with numerous specks, streaks, spirals, and swirls of white, yellow, orange and red is only “one little speck of the universe,” NASA Administrator Bill Nelson said. “What we saw today is the early universe,” Harvard astronomer Dimitar Sasselov said in a phone interview.
Better together. International collaboration gave us the most powerful space telescope ever made, and the deepest infrared views of the universe ever seen. With our partners at @ESA and @CSA_ASC, the science can begin. Together we #UnfoldTheUniverse: https://t.co/oFA1ja4jeP pic.twitter.com/8TXTZEIb6H

Sasselov said that he and his colleague- Charles Alcockfirst first thought they had seen this image before but when they looked closer at it, they realized it was so beautiful and “worth all that waiting.”
Step into the #Webb time-machine and journey back to within a billion years after the Big Bang with these deep views of the Universe.

Now on Tuesday, more images are going to be released, they will include- a view of a giant gaseous planet outside our solar system, two images of a nebula where stars are born and die in spectacular beauty, and an update of a classic image of five tightly clustered galaxies that dance around each other.
