Another accurate photo of the James Webb Telescope - wonderful information

NASA has released a second image of the famous ‘Pillars of Creation’ taken by the new James Webb Telescope.

This week the MIRI (Webb’s Mid-Infrared Instrument) instrument gave us a glimpse of an active star-forming region.

The observatory’s near-infrared camera captured the spot, about 6,500 light-years from Earth, last week.

These pillars are located in the center of what astronomers call Messier 16, or the Eagle Nebula.

These deserve a long study. As new stars are born in a nebula of gas and dust, every modern telescope points in their direction to understand their physics and chemistry.

With a 6.5m wide mirror and a high-quality sensor, the Webb Telescope is an excellent and large space observation instrument for recording images.

The new MIRI image features the ability to select the wavelength used to display the pillars.

Normally, astronomers send light through a dust-filtered column, making it more light-permeable. That way, its interior and early stars are clearly visible. That’s what NIRCam, the Near Infrared Camera, did. It can see thousands of young blue stars.

MIRI movie is a step up from that. The light-filtering part of the instrument selects the wavelengths at which the dust is best illuminated.

Defying expectations of seeing these through dust in the mid-infrared, the latest image shows the method is well-suited to studying dust and complex molecules illuminated by the light of nearby hot stars, says senior scientific advisor Professor Mark McGreen. In the European Space Agency.

The Miri instrument was developed by NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory, led by Britain, and scientists and engineers from 10 European countries.

Professor Gillian Wright acted as Co-Principal Investigator.

“It’s exciting to see how well MIRI is working. It’s providing new scientific information that we didn’t have before,” the director of Britain’s Center for Astronomical Technology told the BBC.

“What we see in this new image is like the skin of the poles. You can see the filaments where the stars are getting dusty and starting to burn. You can also see the dark regions there. Those dense, cold regions. The MIRI instrument doesn’t light up,” he said.

James Webb is a joint project of the US, European and Canadian space agencies. It started in December last year.
