The subsequent images released yesterday were spectacular, and this is just the beginning. The Deep Field that was significantly more detailed than Hubble's, despite taking hours, rather than days, to acquire was impressive....

And that Deep Field image included light from stars that were shining about 13.5 billion years ago. The age of the universe is estimated to be about 14 billion years.

JWST is going to continue to blow our minds for years to come. This is just the beginning.
