James Webb's Infrared “Eyes”



Souce


These are images provided by James Webb, they published it on January 29 and these images offer us 19 galaxies in near and mid-infrared showing us details never seen before, the observations or especially highlight the structures that are created from dust and gas, usually from In a galaxy we see the stars, but not the dust structures and of course the gas clouds.


This offers us clues about how Galaxies work, especially the spirals that are similar to the Milky Way, to our own, and also how stars are formed, but it can also offer us clues as to why some galaxies are dead.


There are dead galaxies: they are those that stopped forming stars several billion years ago. This does not mean that life cannot exist in them, but if new stars do not form, life will have an increasingly difficult time, a star Since the sun can live between 9,000 and 10,000 million years, after that time a dead galaxy will cease to exist, stars like the sun will cease to exist, and planets with life will have to survive in stars in red years, which is how they can live much longer. To live about 200,000 million years after that time, life would already be extremely difficult in that dead galaxy.

The James Webb is a tool that provides us with a different vision of the Cosmos and every time we have a tool that offers us a different vision of the world we discover new things, that is what happened to Galileo Galilei when he created the telescope and began to discover moons on Jupiter and new stars, happened when the microscope was discovered and we discovered the universe of bacteria and viruses and that allowed us to understand the origin of diseases much better.
