A simplified visualization of the process the Near Infrared Camera sensor (NIRCAM) on the Webb telescope undergoes when a light photon is sensed. The different stages of the animation are as followed; the light is turned into electricity, then it is converted to radio signal, the signal is sent to earth, after that the radio waves are translated into numeric code, this code is then distributed to scientists in the form of a FITS file, and finally the scientist has to interpret the data to produce images. Enjoy the trip!
