Its advantage is you can look through the gases and clouds, because of the larger wavelength of the infrared light. The longer the wavelength, the easier it is to go through objects. such as radio waves, whose wavelength is measured in kilometers. We can listen to them through the radio, those waves can travel through our homes and walls.
2 infrared cameras are mounted on this telescope. The Near Infrared Camera, NIRCAM, to capture the shorter infrared wavelengths. And the Mid Infrared Instrument, MIRI Cam, to capture the longer infrared wavelengths. Depending on the camera used by the telescope, the photos vary. Look at this photo.
This photo taken by the NIRCAM, truly breathtaking, it went viral on social media. When the photos were released by NASA.
