Six More Pics From NASA’s Webb Telescope Have Dropped So Stop What You’re Doing Freak Out W Me

NASA has released the second batch of photos from its $10 billion James Webb Space Telescope after the first photo dropped yesterday and blew everyone’s tiny, insignificant minds. The first image was the deepest and sharpest image of space ever seen. It was a massive cluster of thousands of galaxies about 13 billion light years away. BILLION. The latest photos zoom in on “cosmic cliffs”, nebulas and galaxies to show incredible detail of stars and clouds and the colours are stunning. “These images, including the deepest infrared view of our universe that has ever been taken, show us how Webb will help to uncover the answers to questions we don’t even yet know to ask — questions that will help us better understand our universe and humanity’s place within it,” NASA Administrator Bill Nelson

Zooming way out, this is Stephan’s Quintet…five galaxies packed so close together you’d think they were photoshopped. Two of these galaxies are actively colliding! Again, a well-studied patch of the sky that contains TONS of opportunities for new insight. pic.twitter.com/5iXyxV1VSL
