The James Webb Space Telescope — the observatory with an over 21-foot-wide mirror orbiting 1 million miles from Earth — collects bounties of light, allowing it to capture detailed views of galaxies billions of light-years away. Using this imagery, astronomers created a visualization of galaxies seen during a survey of the early universe, called CEERS, short for "Cosmic Evolution Early Release Science."
The one-minute flight video well worth your time.
