James Webb Space Telescope Photos Are Out of This World

One of the coolest things that NASA has going for it—besides launching things and people into space—is their state-of-the-art photography capabilities. NASA photographers are among the best in the world, and maybe even the galaxy.
NASA’s “Image a Day” program continues to amaze, with photos from the International Space Station, the Hubble Telescope, and the James Webb Space Telescope, just to name a few.
NASA recently took a poll of internet users, asking what image they’d most like to see. The winner: the Horsehead Nebula, a cloud of dust and gas located 1,375 light years from Earth in the constellation Orion. Everyone has a favorite image from space; mine is still Alan Shepard playing golf on the moon during the Apollo 14 mission.
We hope you enjoy this photo gallery of images taken by the James Webb Space Telescope, the most powerful telescope ever launched into space. With its improved infrared resolution, it can view objects too far away to be detected by the Hubble, as well as objects dating to much earlier in the history of the universe.

It’s Only Common Sense: It’s the Little Things That Matter
02/19/2024 | Dan Beaulieu -- Column: It's Only Common SenseWhen it comes to business-to-business (B2B) customer service, it is often the little things that matter. While many companies focus on the big things, they ignore the little "softer things" that really create a great customer experience. I truly believe that the higher the technology a company produces, the lousier its customer service. It's as if those companies producing the highest tech products feel they deserve a pass for the easier, always important but more mundane, aspects of customer service.
