Today we saw the release of the first detailed image from the James Web Space Telescope. More images are expected tomorrow and in the future. This spectacular first image is of a minuscule portion of the sky but shows it crammed with galaxies and stars that were in existence billions of years ago. The telescope will allow us to see events that happened close to the formation of the universe. This is a hugely exciting time in astronomy and this tool will transform our understanding over the next few years.
