href=\"https:\/\/www.nasa.gov\/news-release\/nasa-reveals-webb-telescopes-first-images-of-unseen-universe\/\" rel=\"noopener\">July 2022<\/a>, NASA\u2019s James Webb Space Telescope has been unwaveringly focused on our universe. With its unprecedented power to detect and analyze otherwise invisible infrared light, Webb is making observations that were once impossible, changing our view of the cosmos from the most distant galaxies to our own solar system.<\/p>\n<p>Webb was built with the promise of revolutionizing astronomy, of rewriting the textbooks. And by any measure, it has more than lived up to the hype \u2014 exceeding expectations to a degree that scientists had not dared imagine. Since science operations began, Webb has completed more than 860 scientific <a href=\"https:\/\/www.stsci.edu\/jwst\/science-execution\/approved-programs\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">programs<\/a>, with one-quarter of its time dedicated to imaging and three-quarters to <a href=\"https:\/\/webbtelescope.org\/contents\/articles\/spectroscopy-101--introduction\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">spectroscopy<\/a>. In just three years, it has collected nearly 550 terabytes of data, yielding more than 1,600 research papers, with intriguing results too numerous to list and a host of new questions to answer.<\/p>\n<p>Here are just a few noteworthy examples.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">1.\u00a0The universe evolved significantly faster than we previously thought.<\/h2>\n<p>Webb was specifically designed to observe \u201c<a href=\"https:\/\/www.nasa.gov\/universe\/nasas-webb-to-explore-galaxies-from-cosmic-dawn-to-present-day\/\" rel=\"noopener\">cosmic dawn<\/a>,\u201d a time during the first billion years of the universe when the first stars and galaxies were forming.

A team of astronomers studying JADES data identified about 80 objects that changed in brightness over time. Most of these objects, known as transients, are the result of exploding stars or supernovae.<\/p>\n<p>Prior to this survey, only a handful of supernovae had been found above a redshift of 2, which corresponds to when the universe was only 3.3 billion years old \u2014 just 25% of its current age. The JADES sample contains many supernovae that exploded even further in the past, when the universe was less than 2 billion years old. It includes the farthest one ever spectroscopically confirmed, at a redshift of 3.6. Its progenitor star exploded when the universe was only 1.8 billion years old.\n<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"hds-credits\">NASA, ESA, CSA, STScI, JADES Collaboration<\/div>\n<\/figcaption><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">2. Deep space is scattered with enigmatic \u201cLittle Red Dots.\u201d<\/h2>\n<p>Webb has revealed a new type of galaxy: a distant population of mysteriously compact, bright, red galaxies dubbed <a href=\"https:\/\/science.nasa.gov\/missions\/webb\/newfound-galaxy-class-may-indicate-early-black-hole-growth-webb-finds\/\" rel=\"noopener\">Little Red Dots<\/a>. What makes Little Red Dots so bright and so red? Are they lit up by dense groupings of unusually bright stars or by gas spiraling into a supermassive black hole, or both? And whatever happened to them? Little Red Dots seem to have appeared in the universe around 600 million years after the big bang (13.2 billion years ago), and rapidly declined in number less than a billion years later. Did they evolve into something else? If so, how? Webb is probing Little Red Dots in more detail to answer these questions.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">3. Pulsating stars and a triply lensed supernova are further evidence that the \u201cHubble Tension\u201d is real.<\/h2>\n<p>How fast is the universe expanding? It\u2019s hard to say because different ways of calculating the current expansion rate yield different results \u2014 a dilemma known as the Hubble Tension. Are these differences just a result of measurement errors, or is there something weird going on in the universe? So far, Webb data indicates that the Hubble Tension is not caused by measurement errors. Webb was able to distinguish <a href=\"https:\/\/science.nasa.gov\/missions\/hubble\/nasas-webb-hubble-telescopes-affirm-universes-expansion-rate-puzzle-persists\/\" rel=\"noopener\">pulsating stars<\/a> from nearby stars in a crowded field, ensuring that the measurements weren\u2019t contaminated by extra light. Webb also discovered a <a href=\"https:\/\/science.nasa.gov\/blogs\/webb\/2024\/10\/01\/webb-researchers-discover-lensed-supernova-confirm-hubble-tension\/\" rel=\"noopener\">distant, gravitationally lensed supernova<\/a> whose image appears in three different locations and at three different times during its explosion. Calculating the expansion rate based on the brightness of the supernova at these three different times provides an independent check on measurements made using other techniques. Until the matter of the Hubble Tension is settled, Webb will continue measuring different objects and exploring new methods.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">4.

Webb can size up asteroids that may be headed for Earth.<\/h2>\n<p>In 2024 astronomers discovered an asteroid that, based on preliminary calculations, had a chance of hitting Earth. Such potentially hazardous asteroids become an immediate focus of attention, and Webb was <a href=\"https:\/\/science.nasa.gov\/blogs\/webb\/2025\/04\/02\/nasas-webb-finds-asteroid-2024-yr4-is-building-sized\/\" rel=\"noopener\">uniquely able<\/a> to measure the object, which turned out to be the size of a 15-story building. While this particular asteroid is no longer considered a threat to Earth, the study demonstrated Webb\u2019s ability to assess the hazard.<\/p>\n<p>Webb also provided support for NASA\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/science.nasa.gov\/mission\/dart\/\" rel=\"noopener\">Double Asteroid Redirection Test<\/a> (DART) mission, which deliberately smashed into the Didymos binary asteroid system, showing that a planned impact <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nasa.gov\/missions\/dart\/nasa-study-asteroids-orbit-shape-changed-after-dart-impact\/\" rel=\"noopener\">could deflect<\/a> an asteroid on a collision course with Earth. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nasa.gov\/solar-system\/webb-hubble-capture-detailed-views-of-dart-impact\/\" rel=\"noopener\">Both Webb and Hubble<\/a> observed the impact, serving witness to the resulting spray of material that was ejected. Webb\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/arxiv.org\/abs\/2310.11168\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">spectroscopic observations<\/a> of the system confirmed that the composition of the asteroids is probably typical of those that could threaten Earth.<\/p>\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\">\u2014-<\/p>\n<p>In just three years of operations, Webb has brought the distant universe into focus, revealing unexpectedly bright and numerous galaxies. It has unveiled new stars in their dusty cocoons, remains of exploded stars, and skeletons of entire galaxies. It has studied weather on gas giants, and hunted for atmospheres on rocky planets. And it has provided new insights into the residents of our own solar system.<\/p>\n<p>But this is only the beginning. Engineers estimate that Webb has enough fuel to continue observing for at least 20 more years, giving us the opportunity to answer additional questions, pursue new mysteries, and put together more pieces of the cosmic puzzle.<\/p>\n<p>For example: What were the very first stars like? Did stars form differently in the early universe? Do we even know how galaxies form? How do stars, dust, and supermassive black holes affect each other? What can merging galaxy clusters tell us about the nature of dark matter? How do collisions, bursts of stellar radiation, and migration of icy pebbles affect planet-forming disks? Can atmospheres survive on <a href=\"https:\/\/rockyworlds.stsci.edu\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">rocky worlds<\/a> orbiting active red dwarf stars? Is Uranus\u2019s moon Ariel an ocean world?<\/p>\n<p>As with any scientific endeavor, every answer raises more questions, and Webb has shown that its investigative power is unmatched. Demand for observing time on Webb is at an <a href=\"https:\/\/www.stsci.edu\/contents\/newsletters\/2025-volume-42-issue-01\/jwst-cycle-4-tac-results?filterUUID=78a9f3f8-7739-4283-92a6-14b9a990f2f7\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">all-time high<\/a>, greater than any other telescope in history, on the ground or in space.
