Most Expensive Image in the World

This image took $10,000,000,000 to create.

That’s a small part of the entire actual image and you can see entire galaxies magnified through gravity lensing around a cluster that’s pretty cool

no it didnt

they should have given these money to ukraine

This was more expensive.
Also: I have just ruined this thread lmao

Based. Thank you Joe for the cool screensaver.

It's even funnier when you know all these "photos" of the deep space are black and white and have no color and are not actually photos but a vague signal they get from a direction
Then they are being colored by the NASA/ESA PR agency team on the ASSUMPTION that one specific object is of that color.

fake, these are all made in paint, space exploration doesn't exist

Still salty that you lost the space race?

They'll use the telescope for thousands of other pictures dumbass.

Taking that picture probably costed just a few millions. People in Hollywood are very good at that.

That light is coming from 600 million years after the Big Bang, it's very ancient

that's not how false color works

No, just telling people how things actually work in the space industry.
There are no photos of black holes and the colors of stars and planets are not real because all they see through the telescope is a 0.001x0.001 white pixel on the black background

We have older images from older telescopes

looks fake & gay.

Here is a picture of what you can see by using the Hubble and this picture has been 400% upscaled for the PR purposes
In reality all they can see is a 700x400 pixel picture

That's incorrect.
The images are not in color but the way it is colorized is based in science and not arbitrary artistic choice.

>When Hubble scientists take photos of space, they use filters to record specific wavelengths of light. Later, they add red, green, or blue to color the exposures taken through those filters. The result is full-color images that have a variety of purposes for scientific analysis.

If that’s the price it’ll cost for us to get in touch with aliens, then so be it.

i understand that they can take pictures of space, but what technology is the one that allows them to know what planets are made of? or those are all just assumptions.

You can't see anything. It's just sensors and computers that create a picture which is then adapted to be seen by our eyes.
The reds you see are probably infrared light, invisible to the naked eye.

deep matter my ass
they dont know shit about what's going on outside of our own galaxy let alone the sheer number of different chemicals that can exist on other planets
They are using the wavelength method which is based on the types of already known and proven theorems

JWST is also infrared, so all the pictures are red in colour. All the "variety of colours" are just digitally manipulated into how scientists think they look.

Colour wavelengths and brightness on the image over a duration of time helps them understand gas compositions (if the colours shift). And I think brightness determines distance and other phenomena that happens that may distort light

Movie budgets don't count THOUGH

>gas compositions
Earth based gas compositions
nothing stops some unknown chemicals to exist in the space so these are just assumptions based on what we know about Earth only

The galaxies are all redshifted so it's a faithful representation if we were closer

>nothing stops some unknown chemicals
It's not about "chemicals", it's about the elements and we do quite literally know what all the elements are.

Lmao@ Texas retards.
The hubble and Webb projects cost well over 10 gorillion shillings
