Imagen de globular cluster messier 92 (m92) Capturado por el james webbaBB instrumento. La tira negra en el centro es un espacio de chips, el resultado de la separación entre los dos detectores de longitud de onda de NirCam. La brecha cubre el denso centro del clúster, que es demasiado brillante para capturar al mismo tiempo que las afueras más débiles, menos densas del clúster.
Esta imagen es un compuesto de cuatro exposiciones usando cuatro filtros diferentes: F090W (0.9 micras en longitud de onda) se muestra en azul; F150W (1.5 micras) en cian; F277W (2.77 micras) en amarillo; y F444W (4.44 micras) en rojo.
La imagen es de aproximadamente 5 Arcminutes (39 años luz) de ancho.

| About The Data | |
| Data Description | This image was created with Webb data from proposal: (C. R. Weisz). |
| Instrument | NIRCam |

| Filters | F090W, F150W, F277W, 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 specific 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: F090W, Cyan: F150W, Yellow: F277W, Red: 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. |
