It's here–the deepest, sharpest infrared view of the universe to date: Webb's First Deep Field. Previewed by @POTUS on July 11, it shows galaxies once invisible to us. The full set of @NASAWebb's first full-color images & data will be revealed July 12: https://t.co/63zxpNDi4I https://t.co/zAr7YoFZ8C

First James Webb image

👀 Sneak a peek at the deepest & sharpest infrared image of the early universe ever taken — all in a day’s work for the Webb telescope. (Literally, capturing it took less than a day!) This is Webb’s first image released as we begin to #UnfoldTheUniverse: https://t.co/tlougFWg8B https://t.co/Y7ebmQwT7j

First Images from the James Webb Space Telescope

Pretty cool gravitational lensing in view! Lots going on 13 billion years ago! Big win for science! #JamesWebbSpaceTelescope https://t.co/25DMew2llE

Our Milky Way over the oldest living things on earth: the bristlecone pines!

James Webb Space Telescope UPDATE ! - Commissioning is fully complete. The final instrument, the Near-Infrared Camera (NIRCam), now has a tested and verified set of coronagraphic masks. All 17 instrument modes are good to go for science ! Let's go JWST !!

Something (presumably) bad just happened with Super Heavy booster no. 7 during tests in South Texas. A hot fire test was not expected today. https://t.co/EBNOhi1tdL https://t.co/zE2Fueldbd

Today marks the 25th anniversary of the release of the iconic sci-fi movie #Contact. Based on a novel by Planetary Society founder Carl Sagan, this story of the search for extraterrestrial intelligence (SETI) is definitely worth a re-watch. https://t.co/p00HnuRXln

Space themed music?

I'm curious in hearing if you enjoy listening to space / stars themed music? I have lately been listening to for example [emotional space themed ambient](https://open.spotify.com/playlist/1lzaE9QZeGPj592FlxHdWW?si=29d7378eea2743bb) , it really feels inspiring to hear music that lets your imagination run wild and takes you on a mindful journey to the cosmos! Would love to hear what you have found that matches with space / cosmology hobby
