Es hora de reinventar la rueda.

He aquí una nueva imagen de la galaxia Rueda de Carro, captada por el telescopio NASA Webb Telescope. Webb no solo ofrece un panorama del estado actual de la galaxia, sino también un vistazo a su pasado y su futuro: go.nasa.gov/3OUvvYA

Here’s that galaxy again, as seen just through Webb’s MIRI instrument. While Webb’s NIRCam reveals previously unseen young stars, MIRI reveals regions rich in hydrocarbons and chemical compounds, such as silicate dust — similar to dust on Earth!

Believe it or not, this galaxy was probably your average spiral galaxy before it collided with a smaller galaxy over 400 million years ago. Now, it’s made up of 2 rings — a bright inner ring and a surrounding, colorful ring. Both expand outwards from the center like pond ripples.

“Everything we said we were going to do that seemed impossible, we're doing it.'

Webb's Senior Project Scientist, Nobel laureate John Mather, helped take the Webb telescope from dream to reality. Listen to his trajectory on NASA’s #GravityAssist podcast: go.nasa.gov/3zGZFu1

Space optics expert Lee Feinberg was key in developing NASA Webb Telescope's mirrors, testing and tech development - and he's also a keyboardist and composer. Learn more about Lee's journey to #UnfoldTheUniverse : go.nasa.gov/3IUtUkh

Are you at San Diego Comic-Con, and want to learn more about our NASA Webb Telescope telescope? You're in luck! @NASA is hosting a panel with some of the mission's scientists on Friday, July 22, in Room 7AB from 4-5pm PT. #SDCC

After more than three decades at NASA & leading the NASAWebb team of nearly 20,000 people across 29 states & 14 countries to a once-unimaginable success, Webb's Program Director, Greg Robinson is retiring: go.nasa.gov/3PDK1oC

How did Webb's first images make you feel? 🥲😮😳
