    James Webb Space Telescope gets a remarkable tribute from Google Doodle today

    The Google Doodle on Wednesday showcased an animated James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) snapping shots in tribute to NASA’s farthest images of the cosmos.

    The scientific doodle, known as the “golden eye,” depicts the telescope’s gold-coated, flower-shaped mirror perched atop a spacecraft. The JWST photos, including the Deep Field image, which lit thousands of galaxies and the faintest objects, are then displayed in the doodle.

    Unveiling the first image at the White House, US President Joe Biden said: “This is the oldest documented light in the history of the universe from 13 billion — let me say that again, 13 billion — years ago… We can see possibilities no one has ever seen before… “We can go places no one has ever gone before.”

    Google Doodle Pays Tribute to Stunning NASA Pictures of Unknown Universe

    The Carina Nebula, one of the largest and brightest nebulae in the sky, the Southern Ring Nebula, a cloud of gas surrounding a dying star, and Stephen’s Quintet, a group of five galaxies where four of them are locked in a “cosmic dance” of repeated close encounters, were also among the other stunning objects that JWST photographed, which google doodle celebrated today

    NASA administrator Bill Nelson told the BBC, “By the way, we’re going back further, because this is just the first image. They’re going back about 13 and a half billion years. And since we know the Universe is 13.8 billion years old, you’re going back almost to the beginning.”
