An illustration of the James Webb Space Telescope in space.
The James Webb is often called the worlds most powerful space telescope.
  • JWST snaps thousands of photos of our universe, from sparkling stellar nurseries to clusters of distant galaxies.
  • But it takes human image processors, like Joe DePasquale, to turn these photos into works of art.
  • DePasquale gave BI a behind-the-scenes look at how he creates images like the Deep Field and the Tarantula Nebula.

Two years ago today, NASA unveiled the first full-color space images captured by the James Webb Space Telescope.
