Five years ago, the launch of the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) marked the start of a new era of astrophysics, characterized by unprecedented precision and an abundance of data. In this show, we will take a look at the revolutionary discoveries made possible by JWST. We will begin with the Deep Field images that reveal distant galaxies as they appeared just a few hundred million years after the Big Bang. Then, we will explore how atmospheres of exotic planets orbiting stars other than the Sun are detected and characterized, opening new possibilities in the search for life beyond our Solar System. Finally, we will marvel at the beauty of the cosmos with images of stellar nurseries and nebulae, the remnants of ancient exploded stars. Join us for a journey across the Universe as revealed by JWST!
