This image of the Ring Nebula, taken by Webb’s Near-Infrared Camera, appears as a distorted doughnut. The nebula’s inner cavity hosts shades of blue and green, while the detailed ring transitions through shades of orange in the inner regions and pink in the outer region. The ring’s inner region has distinct filament elements. Stars litter the scene, with a particularly prominent star with 8 long spikes in the top right corner.

Colorful clouds of gas and dust crowd the image. Deep red and orange clouds surround the image's edges, with some violet in the upper left portion. Near the left middle, a region of teal and yellow shines.

A star cluster is shown inside a large nebula of many-coloured gas and dust. The material forms dark ridges and peaks of gas and dust surrounding the cluster, lit on the inner side, while layers of diffuse, translucent clouds blanket over them. Around and within the gas, a huge number of distant galaxies can be seen, some quite large, as well as a few stars nearer to us which are very large and bright.

A colorful, glowing nebula that reaches beyond the top and bottom of the image. This translucent cloud of gas holds wispy and thin filaments with hard edges in some places, and puffy and opaque in others. Blue, red, and yellow colors mix together, showing light emitted by different types of atoms in the hot gas. Scattered across the colorful nebula are bright and point-like foreground and background stars. The background is black.

the universe wishes you a very happy pride month 🏳️‍🌈🌌

My sensations were strange. Let me try to explain them.

The cover of Bramble's edition of The Poet Empress by Shen Tao

So excited to share the beautiful cover of my debut fantasy, #ThePoetEmpress, which I am absolutely floored by! 🥰 It's comes out from Bramble 01.20.26 next year!

A post on Threads from Miss Rachel, a well-known children’s educator and entertainer: “What’s it like for kids in Gaza?” my little boy asks me. Well, kids don’t have medical care & can’t go to the doctor like us. They don’t get to go to school like you & learn & play. They don’t have enough food or water or a safe place to live. “Why?”🥺 I feel my heart breaking. I can’t tell my son it’s some natural disaster. That there’s not enough food or medicine in the world. It’s that grown-ups are keeping these basic human rights away from children. It’s a choice.

Two posts on Threads from Miss Rachel, a well-known children’s educator and entertainer. The first post says: “Leaders - Be so ashamed that your constituents are begging & pleading for you speak out and you stay silent. Be so ashamed that you put money & power & your career before the lives of precious children of God. Be so ashamed that our religions tell us to give to the poor, feed the hungry & open our arms to all children & you pretend that they mean only for some children.” The second post says: “Celebrities as well. If everyone says something it won’t be controversial anymore. It’s never been wrong to say starving and bombing kids is wrong. God help everyone have the strength to say something. Please, God.”

A post on Threads from Ms Rachel, a popular children’s educator and entertainer: “If you want to be remembered for saying something about Gaza before the entire world does, now would be the time.”

Miss Rachel isn’t on Bluesky, but her posts about Gaza should be. I wish this wasn’t so unusual to see from people with big platforms.
