Natural History Pub – Deciphering the Early Universe: From Photons to Publications

The images we see from the James Webb Space Telescope are more than just a picture. They are the result of billions of photons filtered, counted and interpreted by astronomers. How do astronomers know what they’re looking at when objects can be specks, or raw data are just lines, spikes and dots? Join Dr. Brandon Matthews, astrophysics researcher, as he explores how astronomers decode the distant cosmos using only the light we can capture.
