1.5TB of JWST Deep-Space Data Released for Open Science

A NASA-backed project, COSMOS-Web, leveraging data from the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST), has released over 1.5 TB of open-access data offering the largest view into the deep universe to date. This dataset includes a galaxy catalog and an interactive viewer, allowing users to search for specific objects and view their properties. The project focused on making the previously available but unwieldy raw data more usable for scientists. Processed using the French supercomputer CANDIDE, the data provides an invaluable resource for studying the reionization process in the early universe and is now open to the global scientific community for further research and discovery.
