La gravedad masiva del clúster Galaxy MacS0647 actúa como una lente cósmica para doblar y magnificar la luz del sistema MacS0647-JD más distante. También piló triplicando el sistema JD, lo que provocó que su imagen apareciera en tres ubicaciones separadas. Estas imágenes, que se destacan con cajas blancas, están marcadas JD1, JD2 y JD3; Las vistas con zoom se muestran en los paneles a la derecha. En esta imagen del instrumento de cámara infrarroja cercana (NIRCAM) de Webb, se asignó azul a longitudes de onda de 1.15 y 1.5 micras (F115W, F150W), verdes a longitudes de onda de 2.0 y 2.77 micras (F200W, F277W) y longitudes de onda roja a onda de 3.65 y 4.44 micras (F365W, F4444W).

| About The Object | |
|---|---|
| Object Name | MACS J0647+7015, MACS0647-JD |
| Object Description | Galaxy Cluster/Gravitational Lens and z~11 Galaxy Candidate |
| R.A. Position | 06:47:50.00 |
| Dec. Position | +70:14:55.00 |
| Constellation | Camelopardalis |
| Distance | The distance to the cluster is 5.6 billion light-years (1.7 billion parsecs or redshift z = 0.591). The distance to the lensed source is about 13.3 billion light-years (4 billion parsecs or redshift z ~ 11). |
| About The Data | |
| Data Description | This image was created from JWST data from proposal: (D. Coe) |
| Instrument | NIRCam |
| Exposure Dates | 23 Sept 2022 |
| Filters | F115W, F150W, F200W, F277W, F356W, F444W |
| About The Image | |
| Color Info | These images are a composite of separate exposures acquired by the James Webb Space Telescope using the NIRCam instrument. Several filters were used to sample different infrared wavelength ranges. The color results from assigning different hues (colors) to each monochromatic (grayscale) image associated with an individual filter. In this case, the assigned colors are: Blue: F115W+F150W Green: F220W+F277W, Red: F356W+F444W |
| About The Object | |
|---|---|
| Object Name | A name or catalog number that astronomers use to identify an astronomical object. |
| Object Description | The type of astronomical object. |
| R.A. Position | Right ascension – analogous to longitude – is one component of an object's position. |
| Dec. Position | Declination – analogous to latitude – is one component of an object's position. |
| Constellation | One of 88 recognized regions of the celestial sphere in which the object appears. |
| Distance | The physical distance from Earth to the astronomical object. Distances within our solar system are usually measured in Astronomical Units (AU). Distances between stars are usually measured in light-years. Interstellar distances can also be measured in parsecs. |
| Dimensions | The physical size of the object or the apparent angle it subtends on the sky. |
