Through a citizen science project called Galaxy Zoo, volunteers can help astronomers analyze over 500,000 James Webb Space Telescope images and classify galaxies observed from deep space.
NASA's James Webb Space Telescope has found water vapor swirling in the air of a distant, boiling-hot alien planet, a new study reports.
Astronomers using the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) have confirmed the existence of the first known planet closely orbiting a dead star — offering new insights into how planets may evolve during the final stages of a star's life.
The James Webb Space Telescope has observed surface ice methanol — a key building block for organic compounds necessary for life, including sugars — on trans-Neptunian objects.
A stunning new image from the James Webb Space Telescope offers a "visual feast of galaxies," including objects billions of light years away and the most massive known galactic group.
Using the James Webb Space Telescope, scientists have found an extremely ancient galaxy piercing through a thick blanket of cosmic fog in the distant universe.
Using the James Webb Space Telescope, astronomers have peered into galaxies that existed at cosmic noon to hunt ravenously feeding black holes and bursts of starbirth.
A stunning new image from the James Webb Space Telescope is allowing astronomers to examine the complex and turbulent final stages of a dying star.
The James Webb Space Telescope has revisited a star that swallowed a planet and found that instead of the star subsuming the planet, it was the planet that crashed into the star.
Scientists have uncovered a massive galaxy that existed just 2 billion years after the Big Bang. But how did this colossal "Big Wheel" form so early in the universe? The answer could change everything we know about galaxy growth.
