This work has helped explain an unusual structure in the debris from the destroyed star called the “Green Monster”, first discovered in Webb data in April 2023. The research has also uncovered new details about the explosion that created Cas A about 340 years ago, from Earth’s perspective.A new composite image contains X-rays from Chandra (blue), infrared data from Webb (red, green, blue), and optical data from Hubble (red and white). The outer parts of the image also include infrared data from NASA’s Spitzer Space Telescope (red, green and blue). The outline of the Green Monster can be seen by mousing over the image in the original feature, located here: chandra.cfa.harvard.edu/photo/2024/casa/.The Chandra data reveals hot gas, mostly from supernova debris from the destroyed star, including elements like silicon and iron. In the outer parts of Cas A the expanding blast wave is striking surrounding gas that was ejected by the star before the explosion. The X-rays are produced by energetic electrons spiraling around magnetic field lines in the blast wave. These electrons light up as thin arcs in the outer regions of Cas A, and in parts of the interior. Webb highlights infrared emission from dust that is warmed up because it is embedded in the hot gas seen by Chandra, and from much cooler supernova debris. The Hubble data shows stars in the field.Detailed analysis by the researchers found that filaments in the outer part of Cas A, from the blast wave, closely matched the X-ray properties of the Green Monster, including less iron and silicon than in the supernova debris. This interpretation is apparent from the color Chandra image, which shows that the colors inside the Green Monster’s outline best match with the colors of the blast wave rather than the debris with iron and silicon. The authors conclude that the Green Monster was created by a blast wave from the exploded star slamming into material surrounding it, supporting earlier suggestions from the Webb data alone.The debris from the explosion is seen by Chandra because it is heated to tens of millions of degrees by shock waves, akin to sonic booms from a supersonic plane. Webb can see some material that has not been affected by shock waves, what can be called “pristine” debris.Read more here: chandra.cfa.harvard.edu/photo/2024/casa/. || 53453268481_e80cfca2d4_o.jpg (4200x3386) [7.1 MB] || 53453268481_e80cfca2d4_o_searchweb.png (320x180) [121.1 KB] || 53453268481_e80cfca2d4_o_thm.png (80x40) [15.9 KB] || webb-chandra-hubble-and-spitzer-all-explore-cassiopeia-a-composite-all-4.hwshow || ", "hits": 361 }, { "id": 31290, "url": "https://svs.gsfc.nasa.gov/31290/", "result_type": "Hyperwall Visual", "release_date": "2024-06-13T00:00:00-04:00", "title": "Webb and Hubble's Views of Spiral Galaxy NGC 628", "description": "animated comparison || NGC_628-HST_Webb-1080p.00001_print.jpg (1024x576) [334.0 KB] || NGC_628-HST_Webb-1080p.mp4 (1920x1080) [58.7 MB] || NGC_628-HST_Webb-4k.mp4 (3840x2160) [221.7 MB] || webb-and-hubbles-views-of-spiral-galaxy-ngc-628-4k-movie.hwshow [350 bytes] || ", "hits": 488 }, { "id": 31285, "url": "https://svs.gsfc.nasa.gov/31285/", "result_type": "Hyperwall Visual", "release_date": "2024-06-12T00:00:00-04:00", "title": "The Webb Space Telescope Studies the \"Cosmic Cliffs\" in NGC 3324", "description": "The seemingly three-dimensional “Cosmic Cliffs” showcases Webb’s capabilities to peer through obscuring dust and shed new light on how stars form. Webb reveals emerging stellar nurseries and individual stars that are completely hidden in visible-light pictures. This landscape of “mountains” and “valleys” is actually the edge of a nearby stellar nursery called NGC 3324 at the northwest corner of the Carina Nebula.So-called mountains — some towering about 7 light-years high — are speckled with glittering, young stars imaged in infrared light. A cavernous area has been carved from the nebula by the intense ultraviolet radiation and stellar winds from extremely massive, hot, young stars located above the area shown in this image. The blistering, ultraviolet radiation from these stars is sculpting the nebula’s wall by slowly eroding it away. Dramatic pillars rise above the glowing wall of gas, resisting this radiation. The “steam” that appears to rise from the celestial “mountains” is actually hot, ionized gas and hot dust streaming away from the nebula due to the relentless radiation.Objects in the earliest, rapid phases of star formation are difficult to capture, but Webb’s extreme sensitivity, spatial resolution and imaging capability can chronicle these elusive events. || eta-carina-cliffs-webb-STScI-01G8GX1KMWX2XA4PK2EWM7KE3R-hw_resolution_print.jpg (1024x593) [318.7 KB] || eta-carina-cliffs-webb-STScI-01G8GX1KMWX2XA4PK2EWM7KE3R-hw_resolution.png (3840x2224) [10.2 MB] || eta-carina-cliffs-webb-STScI-01G8GX1KMWX2XA4PK2EWM7KE3R.png (14575x8441) [113.7 MB] || eta-carina-cliffs-webb-STScI-01G8GX1KMWX2XA4PK2EWM7KE3R-hw_resolution_searchweb.png (320x180) [116.3 KB] || eta-carina-cliffs-webb-STScI-01G8GX1KMWX2XA4PK2EWM7KE3R-hw_resolution_thm.png (80x40) [13.5 KB] || eta-carina-cliffs-webb-STScI-01G8GX1KMWX2XA4PK2EWM7KE3R.png.dzi [179 bytes] || eta-carina-cliffs-webb-STScI-01G8GX1KMWX2XA4PK2EWM7KE3R.png_files [4.0 KB] || the-webb-space-telescope-studies-the-cosmic-cliffs-in-ngc-3324-still.hwshow [430 bytes] || ", "hits": 390 }, { "id": 31289, "url": "https://svs.gsfc.nasa.gov/31289/", "result_type": "Hyperwall Visual", "release_date": "2024-06-07T00:00:00-04:00", "title": "Webb Depicts Staggering Structure in 19 Nearby Spiral Galaxies", "description": "Collection of 19 face-on spiral galaxies from the James Webb Space Telescope in near- and mid-infrared light || STScI-01HM9N7MFNS25D041H5YFKHE0J_print.jpg (1024x1024) [652.8 KB] || STScI-01HM9N7MFNS25D041H5YFKHE0J.png (4500x4500) [31.7 MB] || STScI-01HM9N7MFNS25D041H5YFKHE0J_searchweb.png (320x180) [119.4 KB] || STScI-01HM9N7MFNS25D041H5YFKHE0J_thm.png (80x40) [15.0 KB] || webb-depicts-staggering-structure-in-19-nearby-spiral-galaxies.hwshow [71 bytes] || ", "hits": 352 }, { "id": 31286, "url": "https://svs.gsfc.nasa.gov/31286/", "result_type": "Hyperwall Visual", "release_date": "2024-05-28T00:00:00-04:00", "title": "Webb Space Telescope Studies the Pillars of Creation", "description": "Webb MIRI ImageNASA’s James Webb Space Telescope’s mid-infrared view of the Pillars of Creation strikes a chilling tone. Thousands of stars that exist in this region disappear – and seemingly endless layers of gas and dust become the centerpiece.The detection of dust by Webb’s Mid-Infrared Instrument (MIRI) is extremely important – dust is a major ingredient for star formation. Many stars are actively forming in these dense blue-gray pillars. When knots of gas and dust with sufficient mass form in these regions, they begin to collapse under their own gravitational attraction, slowly heat up – and eventually form new stars.Although the stars appear missing, they aren’t. Stars typically do not emit much mid-infrared light. Instead, they are easiest to detect in ultraviolet, visible, and near-infrared light. In this MIRI view, two types of stars can be identified. The stars at the end of the thick, dusty pillars have recently eroded the material surrounding them. They show up in red because their atmospheres are still enshrouded in cloaks of dust. In contrast, blue tones indicate stars that are older and have shed most of their gas and dust.Mid-infrared light also details dense regions of gas and dust. The red region toward the top, which forms a delicate V shape, is where the dust is both diffuse and cooler. And although it may seem like the scene clears toward the bottom left of this view, the darkest gray areas are where densest and coolest regions of dust lie. Notice that there are many fewer stars and no background galaxies popping into view.Webb’s mid-infrared data will help researchers determine exactly how much dust is in this region – and what it’s made of. These details will make models of the Pillars of Creation far more precise. Over time, we will begin to more clearly understand how stars form and burst out of these dusty clouds over millions of years. || STScI-01GFRYYRTCTMX197BY86MBFCR9-pillars.png (1987x1817) [4.1 MB] || STScI-01GFRYYRTCTMX197BY86MBFCR9-pillars-hwres_print.jpg (1024x576) [125.2 KB] || STScI-01GFRYYRTCTMX197BY86MBFCR9-pillars-hwres.png (3840x2160) [4.3 MB] || STScI-01GFRYYRTCTMX197BY86MBFCR9-pillars-hwres_searchweb.png (320x180) [65.3 KB] || STScI-01GFRYYRTCTMX197BY86MBFCR9-pillars-hwres_thm.png (80x40) [7.3 KB] || webb-space-telescope-studies-the-pillars-of-creation.hwshow [368 bytes] || ", "hits": 344 }, { "id": 31284, "url": "https://svs.gsfc.nasa.gov/31284/", "result_type": "Hyperwall Visual", "release_date": "2024-05-27T00:00:00-04:00", "title": "The Webb Space Telescope Studies the Southern Ring Nebula", "description": "Webb Space Telescope NIRCam image || southern-ring-nebula_00433_print.jpg (1024x576) [198.6 KB] || southern-ring-nebula_00433.png (3840x2160) [8.6 MB] || NGC_3132_webb_NIRCam-STScI-01G8GZQ3ZFJRD8YF8YZWMAXCE3.png (4833x4501) [21.3 MB] || southern-ring-nebula_00433_searchweb.png (320x180) [90.4 KB] || southern-ring-nebula_00433_thm.png (80x40) [6.2 KB] || the-webb-space-telescope-studies-the-southern-ring-nebula-nircam-view.hwshow [274 bytes] || ", "hits": 169 }, { "id": 31283, "url": "https://svs.gsfc.nasa.gov/31283/", "result_type": "Hyperwall Visual", "release_date": "2024-05-22T00:00:00-04:00", "title": "Webb Space Telescope View of the Horsehead Nebula", "description": "Horsehead Nebula (Euclid, Hubble and Webb images) || STScI-01HV6QEKG49SGS0JAAC3KQ3CGW-horsehead-x3.png (8983x3530) [35.2 MB] || STScI-01HV6QEKG49SGS0JAAC3KQ3CGW-horsehead-x3_print.jpg (1024x402) [143.1 KB] || STScI-01HV6QEKG49SGS0JAAC3KQ3CGW-horsehead-x3_searchweb.png (320x180) [90.1 KB] || STScI-01HV6QEKG49SGS0JAAC3KQ3CGW-horsehead-x3_thm.png (80x40) [15.8 KB] || ", "hits": 78 }, { "id": 31197, "url": "https://svs.gsfc.nasa.gov/31197/", "result_type": "Hyperwall Visual", "release_date": "2022-10-26T00:00:00-04:00", "title": "Carina Nebula Webb vs Hubble", "description": "Carina Nebula comparison of James Web vs HubbleThese comparison photos of a young star-forming region called NGC 3324 in the Carina Nebula, taken by Webb, (left) and Hubble, (right), showcase Webb’s abilities to peer through cosmic dust and unveil hundreds of previously hidden stars and background galaxies.

The alignment of the telescope across all of Webb’s instruments can be seen in a series of images that captures the observatory’s full field of view. Featured in this video are engineering images demonstrating the sharp focus of each instrument. For this test, Webb pointed at part of the Large Magellanic Cloud, a small satellite galaxy of the Milky Way, providing a dense field of hundreds of thousands of stars across all the observatory’s sensors. The sizes and positions of the images shown depict the relative arrangement of each of Webb’s instruments in the telescope’s focal plane, each pointing at a slightly offset part of the sky relative to one another. Webb’s three imaging instruments are NIRCam (images shown here at a wavelength of 2 microns), NIRISS (image shown here at 1.5 microns), and MIRI (shown at 7.7 microns, a longer wavelength revealing emission from interstellar clouds as well as starlight). NIRSpec is a spectrograph rather than imager but can take images, such as the 1.1 micron image shown here, for calibrations and target acquisition. The dark regions visible in parts of the NIRSpec data are due to structures of its microshutter array, which has several hundred thousand controllable shutters that can be opened or shut to select which light is sent into the spectrograph.

Webb's instruments are designed to work primarily in the infrared range of the electromagnetic spectrum, with some capability in the visible range.\n\nWebb has a large primary mirror, 6.5 meters (21.3 feet) in diameter and a sunshield the size of a tennis court. Both the mirror and sunshade are too large to fit onto the Ariane 5 rocket fully open, so both were folded which meant they needed to be unfolded in space. \n\nWebb is currently in its operational orbit about 1.5 million km (1 million miles) from the Earth at a location known as Lagrange Point 2 (L2).\n\nThe James Webb Space Telescope was named after the NASA Administrator who crafted the Apollo program, and who was a staunch supporter of space science.", "hits": 795 } ] }
