 Hey, Space Placers!

The JWST science team said that our solar system was going to be studied by Webb. Man, oh, man, have they delivered a jaw dropping sample of what is to come with these images of Jupiter!

Stay tuned!

  1. How can I get a high resolution image of the swirling clouds at the poles? It would match my living room so well and I’d like to make a large canvas print of one to hang on the wall.

    1. Not to be a Luddite but I want hi res images to blow up to 4’ x 3’ and not sure if that’s what I get if I just click on the images?
