The field of GRB 061201 observed with JWST/NIRCam using the F150W2 (blue/green) and F322W2 (red) filters. Three galaxies are considered as possible host galaxies: G1 at z ∼ 0.111, G2 at z ∼ 1.2, and G3 at z ≳ 2. The insets zoom in on the target position, which lies 0﹩\mathop{.}\limits^{{\unicode{x02033}}}﹩21 ± 0﹩\mathop{.}\limits^{{\unicode{x02033}}}﹩13 (68% confidence level) from the centroid of G3.
