Thousands of galaxies captured in a patch of sky smaller than a grain of sand held at arm's length. A planetary atmosphere decoded in a single observation. A stellar nursery revealed in infrared light that had been hidden from every telescope that came before. The James Webb Space Telescope had opened its eye - and nothing in astronomy has been the same since.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eThe Universe in New Light\u003c\/i\u003e is the complete guide to what JWST is finding, why it matters, and what it means for our understanding of the cosmos.
