James Webb Space Telescope (JWST)
The animation shows the movement of NASA's James Webb Space Telescope against the background stars on 6th Jan 2022 from 8:41am to 09:54am UTC while travelling over 1 million kilometres away on its journey towards the Sun-Earth L2 point.
The animation was made using 29 consecutive frames, each a 2 minute luminance exposure, and colour was added by subsequently taking a separate RGB image of the same region and then overlaying this onto the animation frames.
