And compared to the old Hubble snapshot, JWST was able to image its slice of the deep field lightning fast. Hubble needed 11 days to capture the area, while JWST needed less than a single day.

If you’ve heard of gravitational lensing recently, it’s likely because the same phenomenon was also visible in the first deep field image shared from the James Webb Space Telescope.

In a famous article published in Science in 1990, John Bahcall of the Institute for Advanced Study in Princeton, N.J., and his colleagues argued that a deep-field image from Hubble would not ...

On Monday, NASA, ESA, and CSA released this image of the SMACS 0723 deep field, an area previously imaged by Hubble, and one of several deep fields Webb will take over time.

This is Hubble’s first deep field photo, taken in 1995 and released in 1996. It was the deepest image of the Universe ever taken.

"Hubble produced many wonderful discoveries, including the Hubble Deep Field's imaging of the peak era of galaxy formation, at a redshift of about 2, when the universe was just a third of its ...
