Summary
[edit]DescriptionWebb Reveals IC 5332 - Flickr - James Webb Space Telescope.jpg |
Space, but make it goth! ️ If this new image from Webb’s mid-infrared instrument (MIRI) looks dark and moody, that's because things look different in mid-infrared light than in visible, ultraviolet, or near-infrared light — the wavelengths you may be more used to seeing from Hubble, Webb and other space telescopes. These are the "bones” of galaxy IC 5332, usually hidden by dust. In mid-infrared light, Webb is able to peer through that dust and see the patterns of gas spread throughout the galaxy. Webb only has one instrument that’s able to see in mid-infrared, making MIRI cool in more ways than one. MIRI’s cryocooler, a special refrigerator, helps keep it just a few degrees shy of absolute zero, the lowest possible temperature!

These “cobwebs” are patterns of gas spread throughout the galaxy. The core of the galaxy glows a dark blue. Stars, seen as tiny blue dots, are scattered throughout the image. There are also sparser, larger red dots spread out among the spiral arms. The background of the image is dark.] Credit: ESA/Webb, NASA & CSA, J. Lee and the PHANGS-JWST and PHANGS-HST Teams |
