Proper Citation: Near Infrared Camera (RRID:SCR_022113)

Description: Instrument aboard the James Webb Space Telescope. It has two major tasks, as imager from 0.6 to 5 micron wavelength, and as wavefront sensor to keep 18-section mirrors functioning as one. Imager covers infrared wavelength range 0.6 to 5 microns. NIRCam detects light from the earliest stars and galaxies in process of formation, population of stars in nearby galaxies, as well as young stars in Milky Way and Kuiper Belt objects. NIRCam is equipped with coronagraphs, instruments that allow astronomers to take pictures of very faint objects around central bright object, like stellar systems.
