Dr. Becky | How will JWST take FULL COLOUR images?! | First release 12th July 2022 @DrBecky | Uploaded 2 years ago | Updated 2 hours ago
NASA have announced that the first science data from the James Webb Space Telescope will be released on the 12th July 2022! Including spectroscopic data and FULL COLOUR images (!) - but how does an infrared telescope take full colour images?

👩🏽‍💻 I'm Dr. Becky Smethurst, an astrophysicist at the University of Oxford. I love making videos about science with an unnatural level of enthusiasm. I like to focus on how we know things, not just what we know. And especially, the things we still don't know. If you've ever wondered about something in space and couldn't find an answer online - you can ask me! My day job is to do research into how supermassive black holes can affect the galaxies that they live in. In particular, I look at whether the energy output from the disk of material orbiting around a growing supermassive black hole can stop a galaxy from forming stars.
