NASA's James Webb Space Telescope is known for looking deep into the universe with an unprecedented level precision and sensitivity. But its images aren't only scientifically useful — they're also beautiful.
From the blues and golds of the breathtaking Southern Ring Nebula to the pinks, oranges and purples of the Cassiopeia A supernova remnant, James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) images render the universe in brilliant color. The images the orbital observatory produces are often so stunning, you might find yourself asking: Do these cosmic objects really look that colorful? And what would these celestial wonders look like if we could view them with our unaided eyes, instead of on a screen?
