NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope has delivered the deepest and sharpest infrared image of the distant universe so far. Webb’s First Deep Field is galaxy cluster SMACS 0723, and it is teeming with thousands of galaxies – including the faintest objects ever observed in the infrared.

Hi, thanks for your comment.

This is a new community, and posts such as this one are to help drive engagement and discussion whilst it is still new.

There are no age restrictions for an article or images for this community.

Amazing how much this looks like the Hubble deep field image. Yet this is a way smaller part of the sky, looking even further than the original.

Modern astronomy is mind boggling.

Which one is the 5000-year-old one?

Honestly, I get an unsettling feeling from these pictures.

I think it's so cool. Things like this really highlight the vastness of space.
