Aesthetically, I like the Hubble images better, they are more painterly and colorful. However there is no doubt that the JWST contains way more information and is exponentially more valuable.
- codq 4y agoIt's kinda like listening to music on vinyl vs. digital. High quality digital is clearly superior sonically, but vinyl has a dullness around the edges that is so aesthetically pleasing. I agree that the Hubble images are just pleasant to look at, warm and wonderful.
- tmm84 4y agoI'm glad someone here said this about them. I grew up seeing Hubble style images (non-IR) so I get the warm fuzziness they have. For me the one thing that gets me are the big shiny stars that seem to have big streaks going everywhere. They feel like lens flare in the photos.
