OUR NASA published new images of Jupiter taken James Webb Space Telescope (JWST). Photos taken by the NIRCam (Near Infrared Camera) instrument show the planet’s magnetic field in action, with Polar Lights reaction at the poles of the largest planet in the solar system.

Aurora on Jupiter, captured by James Webb

While on earth, we call Polar Lights boreal in the north and southern in the south, the Jovian versions of the phenomenon are simply called Aurora from north and south. In the first image, they appear reddish. AT auroras on Jupiter also reflect light from the planet’s clouds. The greenish tint in the same photo shows the haze coming through the poles. OUR big red spot from gas giant appears white due to the sheer amount of sunlight it reflects.

In other images, we can see the system of thin rings of Jupiter, the small satellites Amalthea and Adrastea. You can also see the diffraction caused by dawn in the south and for moon io. Diffraction and about passes by the moon of Amalthea and loses power as it approaches Adrastea.

James Webb: years from production to release

project James Webb telescope was developed National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) in collaboration with European and Canadian space agencies. It was originally planned to launch in 2007. But some problems delayed the launch of the model, one of them was the high cost of production of the James Webb telescope, which grew more and more, and yet in 2005 forced engineers to rethink the original design.

In 2016, the telescope was declared ready, but its project was again shelved due to construction difficulties and remained so until 2019, when it was finally assembled. However, due to the COVID-19 pandemic, there have been more delays until NASA finally scheduled for December 18, 2021 for release.


Continuation after commercial


With it, researchers will be able to observe even more things from space, being able to see some of the oldest galaxies in the universe and other celestial bodies such as black holes. Its operation began on July 12, 2022.
