The James Webb Telescope brought forth eye-catching images


Jupiter is the largest planet in our solar system.  Many things about Jupiter are still unknown to us.  But slowly many unknown information about this planet has started coming in front of us.  Credit to NASA's James Webb Telescope.  It is the largest and newest telescope in the world.  The telescope has now brought forward an eye-catching picture.  News from The Guardian.

 Recently, scientists have released several images of Jupiter taken by this telescope.  An unprecedented view of the planet Jupiter was seen in that picture.  Last Monday, scientists opened the picture.
The James Webb Telescope captured an unprecedented view of Jupiter last July, researchers said.  In this image, the planet's auroras (Northern and Southern Lights) and swirling polar fog are visible.  Outside, Jupiter's Great Red Spot can be clearly seen, along with the planet's many small and large storms.  In one image, a nearly faint ring around Jupiter is visible as well as two small moons.

 "We have never seen Jupiter like this before," said Imke de Pater, an astronomer at the University of California, Berkeley, who assisted in the observation.  It's pretty incredible.  To be honest, we didn't expect it to turn out so well.'
A team of researchers from the United States and France working to develop images of Jupiter artificially colored the infrared images in blue, white, green, yellow and orange.
NASA and the European Space Agency spent $10 billion to build the James Webb Telescope, a successor to the Hubble Space Telescope.  It began operations in space late last year.  The telescope has been observing the universe using infrared cameras since last summer.  It is located 1 million miles from Earth.  Last month, NASA scientists used this telescope to reveal a colorful picture of the universe 1,300 million years ago.  Then the telescope detected signs of water on an Earth-like planet at the farthest point of the Milky Way galaxy.  Now again it has enthralled the world with its unprecedented images of Jupiter.
