The center of the image contains arcs of orange and pink that form a boat-like shape. One end of these arcs points to the top right of the image, while the other end point toward the bottom left. Another plume of orange and pink expands from the center to the top left of the image. To the right of this plume is a large cluster of white stars. There are various other white stars and a few galaxies of different sizes spread throughout the image. Ten, small, yellow circles overlaid at various points across the image indicate the positions of the ten stars surveyed in this study.

JWST CONTINUES TO EXCEED OUR EXPECTATIONS!! ✨

recently, it confirmed a 20 year-old mystery discovered by hubble, finding that there are planet-forming disks in the early universe that are longer lived than they should be, given environmental conditions!

The Helix Nebula

First ever image of another multi-planet solar system captured by ESO Telescope

False color image of the star-forming region NGC 346 in the Small Magellanic Cloud. Delicate lanes of gas are dotted by bright stars in this image produced with JWST's NIRCam instrument. The dominant colors of the gassy regions are purple and orange. Stars show the characteristic six-fold diffraction spikes produced by JWST. Exposures in four wavelength ranges were colored Red, Orange, Cyan, and Blue and then combined.

A side-by-side comparison of a Hubble image of the massive star cluster NGC 346 (left) versus a Webb image of the same cluster (right). The Hubble image shows the cluster in shades of blue against a black background punctuated by white stars of various sizes. Ethereal nebulosity, looking much like draped chiffon, dominates the image. The Webb view, in shades of pink and orange against a black background, is speckled with fewer stars than in the Hubble version. These stars are white and pink. Webb pierces through the cluster’s clouds to reveal more of its structure, which looks like twisted fibers.

Two galaxies collided to form this unique shape. It's thought that the smaller galaxy passed through the center of the larger.

I do astronomy for a living, and images like this *still* take my breath away. What a beautiful universe we live in. Even in the midst of trouble, grief, & anything you might be struggling with (like we all are) - try to seek out the beauty. It helps ❤️

Well Hello..!
Fresh off a transatlantic from Rome to Jersey saw this on a FB post so here I am… looking forward to seeing this take off.

Just the most wonderful twilight in London.

A large fiery orange cloud over the sky, dwarfing low hills at the bottom of the page, there is very little blue sky in the frame.
