The HN title is subtly incorrect: this isn't the first direct image of an exoplanet from JWST. Here's an article from March showing several exoplanet images from JWST: https://science.nasa.gov/missions/webb/nasas-webb-images-young-giant-exoplanets-detects-carbon-dioxide/ https://science.nasa.gov/missions/webb/nasas-webb-images-you... The key word "discovery" has been removed from the headline from TFA: "The James Webb Space Telescope Reveals Its First Direct Image Discovery of an Exoplanet".
