The First Year of JWST Science Conference kicked off today at STScI. Hear from scientists from around the world as they share how #NASAWebb is changing our understanding of the early universe: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pAPeLRl5rT0 #JWSTYearOne

Stay tuned over the next few days as we share “Webb Science Snippets,” videos from some of the conference’s stellar presenters about Webb, astronomy, and their exciting research. #JWSTYearOne

Did you miss this week’s public lecture? Go on a journey “through” the interstellar medium, where gas, dust, and stars meet.
