US Aeronautics and Space Administration NASA developed under the leadership James Webb Space Telescope Important discoveries are being made.
10 billion dollars James Webb Space Telescope (James Webb Space Telescope) continues its work that will shape our perspective on the world of science and the universe. Making a splash with its breathtaking photographs in 2023 and will continue to do so in 2024. JWST, This time a new “Uranus” photo (coming from the camera called NIRCam) is on the agenda. surrounding Uranus This impressive photo above, which reveals the rings once again, Following the previous photo, which you can see in the gallery, it is described as one of the clearest examples detailing the rings of Uranus. on wiki As far as it is concerned, Uranus is the 7th planet of the Solar System according to its distance from the Sun. Uranus, which ranks third after Jupiter and Saturn in terms of diameter and fourth after these two planets and Neptune in terms of mass, takes its name from Uranos, the sky god in Greek mythology. The planet, which was first discovered by William Herschel in 1781 and was classified as an ice giant, It has 13 known rings, 11 of which are clearly visible in the photograph taken by Webb.. By the way, specially for the last photo, the video below is also shared:
The James Webb Space Telescope had previously come to our attention with the discovery of an important exoplanet. official about it NASA Webb Telescope The following statement was made on his Twitter account: “A whole new world! 41 light years small, rocky planet in the distance LHS 475b. This planet, which is 99 percent of the diameter of the Earth, is almost the same size as our world. “This is the first time researchers have used Webb to confirm an exoplanet.”
Researchers stated that a temperature of approximately 300 degrees was measured on the surface of the exoplanet found and that the research would continue. JWST at the end of last year It also attracted attention with the detection of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere of an exoplanet. had taken.
It has not only visual imaging but also scientific analysis features. JWST, It is stated that it is 700 light years away and its atmosphere is constantly expanding with its temperature of 900 degrees. WASP-39b With the discovery of carbon dioxide, it also made an important contribution to the search for extraterrestrial life.
exoplanet or Extrasolar planet is used for planets that are exactly outside the Solar System and orbit another star. Speaking about exoplanets, the number of which has reached 5 thousand as of March 21, 2022, Jessie Christiansen, a researcher at the NASA Exoplanet Science Institute, said in a statement. “This is not just a number. Each one is a new world, a brand new planet. “I get excited about each of them because we don’t know anything about them.” He used the following expressions:
