The Webb telescope will soon be showing new sharper images of the universe. To show what the new telescope is capable of, images were released comparing it to the Spitzer Space telescope used previously.

The test image shows part of the Large Magellanic Cloud, a small satellite galaxy of the Milky Way, located about 160,000 light-years away.

I've always said I hope I live long enough to see a Europa submersible mission. The Clipper Mission is step one, and there's experimentation for small submersible drones for future missions. I really want to see video imagery from an ocean on another world.

For some reason I couldn't open the image, but I found this web site (Gizmodo) that shows the same images. The difference between the Spitzer image and the Webb image is absolutely stunning.
