The space agency translated the data points in Webb’s first images into sound, a process known as sonification.
Webb images in the near-infrared and mid-infrared, which encompass wavelengths human eyes are not capable of seeing.
The telescope’s images are themselves translated from raw data into light we can see, a process detailedThe sonified images go a step further, by taking those infrared wavelengths and mapping them to pitches of sound. They depict the Cosmic Cliffs of the Carina Nebula, the Southern Ring Nebula , and the spectra of the exoplanet WASP-96b’s atmosphere, which indicated the presence of water.
These sonifications, as they’re called, translate the data from different sources in the image into different sounds. In the case of the Carina Nebula image, which depicts vast columns of gas and dust and young stars, brighter light was made louder than fainter sources. The lower in the image the light source was, the lower the assigned frequency of the sound was.
