"Although it might seem that the world changed long ago from the Hubble era to
the JWST era, the reality is that humanity's greatest space-based observatory
of all-time is less than two years old. It launched on Christmas Day, 2021, and
required six months of deployment, commissioning, and calibration operations
before it was ready to begin the primary phase of its life: full-time science
operations. Since those milestones were achieved in July of 2022, JWST has been
our cosmic workhorse, revealing the Universe in a whole new light, with
unprecedented resolution and wavelength coverage to view the cosmos.

While its first sets of spectacular images were released during 2022, this past
year, 2023, represents the very first year that we had this remarkable
observatory operating full-time, surveying the Universe near and far to reveal
some of the most incredible views, plus many unexpected scientific discoveries,
that pretty much no one could have anticipated. Here, without further ado, are
my favorite JWST science images released in 2023."
