Everything NASA Discovered from James Webb's First Year in Space [4K]

I'm a scientist and I understand how the telescope works on paper. But to see an actual marvel of engineering in such a specific orbit with specific ways of looking at our universe, and thinking of what amount of collective effort went into making this - all that makes me incredibly proud to be part of the story that is human civilization. Hats off to each and every human who contributed to this immense success - from the scientific minds who imagined this to the manual workers who kept facilities running. A big big thank you to each and every one of those humans.

After a day of work: some beer, TV with 4k JWST images and Fraser's voice explaining space stuff... Yeah, It's good.

I'm so glad that I live in the JWST era. I'm old enough to remember the launch and deployment of Hubble, and I'm happy it went as well as it did. I'm most curious as to how many people are going to earn their PhD because of JWST.

Being older myself than manned spaceflight, it's just mind boggling how far things have progressed.

Hi :) My name is Snow Gibson. The JWST inspired me to start to work on getting a bachelors degree in physics. I've been completely captivated by all of the amazing discoveries since it was released, and I dont want to just read about them... I want to participate in the research and discoveries going on! Thank you for summarizing the first year of discoveries made by the JWST. Beautiful.

If everything feels doom and gloom, I tend to think about in what magnificent age of discoveries we live now and all brightens up !

I like how when a new instrument sends back data that makes astronomers from all the fields question their models and have to think deeper. That leads to new discoveries about our universe. Thank you

Great summary of the first year of James Web. Thank you for covering the content that you enjoy most, instead of just what gets the most clicks. You may not get as much reach that way but you will for sure have me and many others that will keep coming back for good consistent content.

I've been on the hunt for good science creators that aren't Star Talk or Veritasium and I think this guy really really fits the bill. Good stuff Fraser.

For me...a 70 yo astronomy enthusiast...George Harrison said it best..."it's all too much for me to take." Thanks for this excellent video and report on the JWT. I'm totally blown away.

Amazing. Enough to bring a tear to my eye. Not even being hyperbolic. Seeing the universe like this is so awe-inspiring that I can't help but get a little emotional.

Thank you! I've missed so many of the Webb updates. This was great to have a concise review of the awesomeness.

Amazing job editing this video. I absolutely love how you zoomed into areas providing context and scale to what we are looking at. Plus, I really enjoyed the comparisons to Hubble imagery. This video really shows the power of JWST, and I wish more people covering this topic would put their videos together in a similar way. Us nerds know what we are looking at and understand light years, but no one else has a clue. I think this gets taken for granted. You've set the bar Fraser Cain.

AMAZING!!! Im speechless. My 5th grade science fair project was "The Solar System". I teamed up with a follow class buddy and we came in 2nd place which qualified us for the regional science fair. Unfortunately, our exhibit was destroyed while waiting to be transferred to the school hosting the regionals. The janitors that cleaned up the gymnasium that evening following the science fair accidentally trampled over our project while shooting hoops in close proximity to all of the science fair projects that were waiting to be transferred to the regionals. That was back in 1980 when Pluto was considered a planet. Poor Pluto. lol It's hard for an old fart like me to understand or comprehend how JWST has come to fruition accomplishing the unimaginable during its first year of operation. To all of the great minds of our world that pulled together over the years to make this dream you all had a reality, well done and thank you for allowing an average joe like me to have access and enjoy the content JWST provides.

I'm so happy to be growing up in the era of JWST. Seeing all of the fantastic discoveries and steps forward in astronomy has inspired me enough to strive to become an astronomer later in life. I can't be thankful enough for the chance to exist in our magnificent universe.

What a year, and what a reporter! Thank you Fraser!

For me, JWST data is so incomprehensible that I don’t know where to start asking questions or processing what I see. This does not deter me from seeing all I can about it’s journey. A friend told me in January that the next time we get together I can explain why she should be interested in the JWST and it’s images. 🤯 thank you for giving me answers to her “why”

While I don't have a scientific background, I really enjoy your videos as they're written in a way that makes me understand some of what you're sharing with us. One of the things I learned in this video is how they can look at a Galaxy from different viewpoints using gravitational lensing, which will show the Galaxy at different points in time! How cool is that!!! You now have a new subscriber. Thanks...

My wife and I just returned from a 6 week road trip out west. Many places we camped were dark sky parks, with awe-inspiring views of our Milky Way at night. This summary of JWST’s first year in operation is incredible and perfect timing after our interest was piqued. Thank you Fraser for a fantastic job on this video! I searched for this, because after geeking out on the launch and deployment of JWST and following it closely, I hadn’t searched for new images until recently. Free idea: a film for IMAX format with the right narration about this topic would be a hit! Maybe using A Brief History in Time as the basis??

I learned on paper how a telescope works. But to see a true engineering marvel in such a specific orbit, to look at our universe in a specific way, and to think about how much collective effort it took to achieve it — all of that makes me very proud, because civilization is Part of the human story. Hats off to everyone who contributed to this tremendous success—from the scientific minds who imagined it to the manual workers who kept the facilities running. Thank you all. The landscape of cosmic drainage or gravity infrastructure is further studied through James Webb's advanced auxiliary facilities, constantly operating to open blind spots into greater realities.
