With the first color photographs James Webb Space Telescope (JWST), it is time to compare them with images of the same object (or point in space), Hubble telescopepredecessor JWST. Before we start with images, there are a few things we need to pay attention to: no image is better or worse than another. O Hubble was launched in 1990, and a successor was already being planned at the same time.

O James Webb has newer and different equipment from its predecessor, in addition to the presence of a mirror with a diameter of 6.5 m versus 2.4 m for Hubble. To the left of the comparison will always be the image recorded Hubbleand on the right will be the most recent image taken James Webb Space Telescope.

Carina Nebula

Nebula NGC 3132 (South Rim Nebula)

OUR NASA released two images of the NGC 3132 nebula showing two types of images. Therefore, here we will first see a picture taken Hubble and below image taken James Webb.

Galaxy cluster SMACS 0723

Here we have the deepest picture of the universe. Some of the galaxies in the image James Webb were created “only” millions of years after big Bang.

Stephen’s Quintet

In a quintet we see five galaxies, four of which form a system at a distance of 40 million light years from us, and one that is aligned with them. The four galaxies (top) are interacting with each other. From this cosmic “dance” they eventually converged and formed a single galaxy.

Another galaxy, NGC 7320, is 290 million light years away from Earth. Due to its brightness and correspondence to four galaxies, it seems that it belongs to the system.
