New near-infrared observations by the James Webb Space Telescope highlight a tightly packed group of stars at the peculiar galaxy's center as well as dust on its outer fringes.

The Webb Telescope zeroes in on an undiscovered galaxy. SCOTT DETROW, HOST: NASA's James Webb Space Telescope has revealed yet another marvel from deep in outer space.

The James Webb Space Telescope has observed two large planets at different stages of infancy - one with an atmosphere brimming with dusty clouds and the other encircled by a disk of material ...

The largest map of the universe, created with data from the James Webb Space Telescope, shows almost 800,000 galaxies crammed into a tiny piece of sky and spanning almost all of time.

NASA's James Webb Space Telescope recently turned its attention to the distant planetary system in our Milky Way galaxy to gather new and unexpected insights for a team of researchers.

Webb has become famous for snapping gorgeous images of the cosmos, but the photo the telescope captured of 14 Herculis c is far from as eye-catching. That's because astronomers struggle to image ...

Using the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST), astronomers have peered deep into one of the Milky Way's most radiation-intense star-forming regions, revealing that Earth-like planets can form even ...

In two related firsts, the James Webb Space Telescope has discovered sand-filled rains on a distant exoplanet as its "sandcastle" partner world forms from sandy matter before the eyes of astronomers.

The map extends through roughly 98% of all cosmic time, or 13.5 billion of the universe's 13.8 billion years. That (and its mind-boggling quantity of galaxies) means Webb's map dwarfs Hubble's ...
