The Cosmic Evolution Survey (COSMOS) collaboration has just released a groundbreaking catalog featuring the most comprehensive view of the universe captured by the James Webb Space Telescope. This online resource grants access to detailed images of around 800,000 galaxies, complete with a user-friendly interactive viewer for enthusiasts and professionals alike.
For the first time, COSMOS offers a catalog of universe observations taken with the Webb Telescope. The catalog is monumental, covering 0.54 square degrees of the sky with the Near Infrared Camera (NIRCam), equivalent to the size of three full moons, and 0.2 square degrees with the Mid-Infrared Instrument (MIRI). This rich database includes comprehensive photometric data, which scientists and hobbyists can use for research at no cost.
Notably, the COSMOS catalog is not just for scientists—anyone interested can delve into these fascinating images without needing to register on the site. The survey has been meticulously organized to ensure accessibility, featuring detailed descriptions, separate captures in near (NIRCam) and mid-infrared (MIRI) spectrums, and other specialty data. This initiative democratizes access to space exploration tools and data, encouraging both education and scientific discovery.
As the first installment of COSMOS from the Webb Telescope, this release opens up new opportunities to explore and appreciate the intricate complexities of our universe in unprecedented detail. Whether you’re a professional astronomer or simply a curious stargazer, this catalog is a treasure trove waiting to be explored.
