Webb's Jupiter
The Great Red Spot comes out white here. It reflects so much sunlight that it shines like the brightest clouds.
Dark grey and light grey are not available in this size.
Jupiter photographed by the near-infrared camera of the James Webb Space Telescope, released on 22 August 2022. Three infrared filters were combined, each mapped to a colour. Auroras reach high above both poles, and hazes swirl around the north and south. The Great Red Spot and other bright clouds come out white because they reflect so much sunlight. Judy Schmidt assembled the image from the telescope's data.
A blue planet with pale bands, green and orange light at both poles, a white oval low on the right. It is Jupiter, but not as any eye would see it.
Size, frame and mount
Each of our frame sizes is measured across the glaze, the clear acrylic front of the frame.
Why Perspex. We use high quality Perspex, as clear as glass, so you see the photograph exactly as it should look. It is also light and shatter resistant, so it protects the photograph, arrives safely wherever you are, and keeps even the largest frame easy to hang. Museum glass with UV protection costs a great deal more, and we would rather keep our prints at a price more people can enjoy. Prefer glass? Ask us.
Made to order, where and how
Every print is made for you when you place an order, from the full resolution file the space agencies released to the finished print. Our studios in the US, the UK, the EU and Australia each print for their own region.
Framed prints are giclée printed on fine art paper, set in an acid free white mount behind acrylic glazing, and framed in sustainably sourced wood with a smooth satin finish.

DeliveryOur most asked questions
Most NASA and space prints online come from old, low resolution press release images, recycled across the internet. Ours start from NASA’s scans of the original film and its processed mission images, restored from scratch with the latest tools. They are the same high quality restorations that feature in our bestselling books.
Neither. It is the glaze, the clear Perspex at the front of the frame. The photograph sits inside a mount, so it is smaller: a 20 × 20 in glaze holds a 16 × 16 in photograph. The frame is 7/8 in (22 mm) deep.
Yes. The hanging hardware is already fitted to the back: a cobra hook on frames up to about 27.5 × 39.4 in (70 × 100 cm), and a sawtooth hanger on larger frames. A screw or a nail in the wall is all you need.
Framed prints are giclée printed on fine art paper, then mounted and framed by hand. Photo art prints are printed on 240gsm lustre photo paper with a satin finish, right to the edge. Both are printed from the files we restored for the books.
A framed print leaves our studio within 24 to 96 hours, a photo art print within 24 to 72 hours. After that, delivery usually takes:
- United States: 1 to 5 working days
- United Kingdom: 1 to 3 working days
- Europe: 1 to 10 working days
- Rest of the world: 2 to 15 working days
These are usual times rather than guarantees, and parcels often arrive sooner.
