![Webb’s Biggest Discoveries: Four Years of Science
Previously unseen details all throughout the universe, including right here in our own solar system have been revealed using NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope, and the results so far, are fascinating.
Webb has given scientists, and the world, a powerful new set of tools to help better explain our place in the universe. And with its unprecedented power to detect and analyze otherwise invisible infrared light, objects that were once impossible to observe are now coming into clear view.

![Social Media Shorts: Celebrating #JWSTArt
This video was originally posted on some of our social media platforms to celebrate World Art Day in April 2021.
With its iconic honeycomb mirror, the James Webb Space Telescope is an awe-inspiring blend of engineering, science and art.
Wed like to thank everyone who has sent us their #JWSTArt since we first began collecting Webb-inspired artwork in late 2016. (https://jwst.nasa.gov/content/features/jwstArt/) This video tribute features just a small segment of the hundreds of diverse art submissions weve received: paintings, sculptures, quilts, models and more. Please continue to share your beautiful work with us by tagging your posts with #JWSTArt or emailing us at gsfc-nasawebb@mail.nasa.gov.
When it launches this October, Webb will look back at the first stars and galaxies, transforming our understanding of the universe and our place in it. See our complete art gallery at the link in our bio.
