Ten near-infrared pointings from NIRCam (the Near-Infrared Camera) aboard the James Webb Space Telescope were stitched together to create this mosaic, known as the Cosmic Evolution Encuesta de ciencia de liberación temprana (CE). Estas observaciones están dentro de la misma región estudiada por el telescopio espacial Hubble, que se conoce como Stróts de grótico extendido .
The North and Eas Tenga en cuenta que la relación entre el norte y el este en el cielo (como se ve desde abajo) se voltea en relación con las flechas de dirección en un mapa del suelo (como se ve en arriba).
Esta imagen muestra longitudes de onda de luz infrarroja invisibles que se han traducido en colores de luz visible. La tecla de color muestra qué filtros Nircam se usaron al recolectar la luz. El color de cada nombre del filtro es el color de luz visible utilizado para representar la luz infrarroja que pasa a través de ese filtro.
La barra de escala está marcada en Arcminutes, que es una medida de distancia angular en el cielo. Un arco es igual a una medición angular igual a 1/60 de un grado. (La luna llena tiene un diámetro angular de aproximadamente 30 arcmintas.) El tamaño real de un objeto que cubre un arco en el cielo depende de su distancia del telescopio.

| 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 wide 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: F200W + 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. |
| About The Data | |
| Data Description |
|
| Instrument | The science instrument used to produce the data. |
| Exposure Dates | The date(s) that the telescope made its observations and the total exposure time. |
