Webb NFT was a project to mint free commemorative NFTs of the first images from the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) when they were released by NASA in July 2022.
The Project
When NASA released the stunning first images from JWST, I created a simple smart contract that let anyone mint a free NFT commemorating this historic moment in space exploration.
The images included:
- Deep field view showing thousands of galaxies
- Carina Nebula “Cosmic Cliffs”
- Southern Ring Nebula
- Stephan’s Quintet galaxy group
All images are public domain (NASA policy), and the NFTs were free to mint (just pay gas).
