NASA's Webb Discovers Hidden Planet in Famous Star System Release date: 15 July 2026 8am ID: 2026-126 Planet found through its atmospheric fingerprint opens new way to uncover worlds hidden in starlight Few planetary systems have shaped astronomers’ understanding of planet formation as profoundly as Beta Pictoris. Since the discovery of its famous debris disk in 1983, observations with ground- and space-based telescopes, including NASA’s Hubble and James Webb space telescopes, have revealed exocomets, intricate dust structure, giant exoplanets, and evidence of a planetary system still under construction. Now, Webb has uncovered a third giant planet using an entirely new approach: identifying it through the chemical fingerprint of its atmosphere.

NASA’s Roman Telescope Will Spot Distant Black Holes That Shred Stars Release date: 14 July 2026 10am ID: 2026-203 Roman’s large tally will help illuminate the origins of supermassive black holes Summary Roman’s large tally will help illuminate the origins of supermassive black holes. Supermassive black holes at the center of galaxies can be messy eaters. Sometimes when a wandering star gets too close, it will get shredded before it is consumed. In the process, the region around the black hole brightens and may outshine its entire galaxy. In that way, otherwise hidden black holes become detectable. Once it launches as early as Aug. 30, 2026, the Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope is expected to observe up to 100 of these star-shredding events every year. That data will lead to a new understanding of how supermassive black holes first formed, and how they grow and evolve. Article Link: https://www.stsci.edu/contents/news-releases/2026/news-2026-203/ Pic Description: This artist’s concept portrays a Sun-like star being shredded by a supermassive black hole — a phenomenon known as a tidal disruption event. During these events, the region around a black hole can brighten and become visible across great distances. NASA’s Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope will be able to spot and study tidal disruption events that occurred early in the universe’s history. By characterizing an earlier population of supermassive black holes, astronomers can learn about their origins. Image Credit: NASA, Ralf Crawford (STScI)

Hubble Discovers First of Star Cluster’s Missing Black Holes Release date: 13 July 2026 10am ID: 2026-017 Call it the case of the missing black holes. While models suggest globular star cluster Omega Centauri should contain about 10,000 stellar-mass black holes, none have been detected yet. Recently a team of astronomers located the first stellar-mass black hole in Omega Centauri as it is orbited by a lower-mass visible star. By tracking this star's motion on the sky using hundreds of images taken over 20 years by NASA’s Hubble Space Telescope and more recent images from NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope, they were able to weigh the unseen companion and determine it is indeed a black hole. However, its long period and low mass were surprising for a black hole in this massive star cluster. Article link: https://esahubble.org/news/heic2610/ Pan Video: Pic Description: TheOmega Centauri is visible from Earth with the naked eye and is one of the favourite celestial objects for stargazers in the southern hemisphere. Although the cluster is 17 000 light-years away, lying just above the plane of the Milky Way, it appears almost as large as the full Moon when seen from a dark rural area. The exact classification of Omega Centauri has evolved through time, as our ability to study it has improved. It was first listed in Ptolemy's catalogue nearly two thousand years ago as a single star. Edmond Halley reported it as a nebula in 1677, and in the 1830s the English astronomer John Herschel was the first to recognise it as a globular cluster. Omega Centauri consists of roughly 10 million stars that are gravitationally bound. Credit: NASA & ESA, N. Bartmann (ESA/Hubble) Music: Stellardrone - Eden

Webb uncovers unusual galaxy shaped by cosmic collision 6 July 2026 10am weic2615 — Photo Release ID: 2026-120 In new images from the NASA/ESA/CSA James Webb Space Telescope to celebrate its fourth science anniversary, a familiar galaxy transforms into something far richer, and far more complex, than ever seen before. Webb’s unprecedented sensitivity across near- and mid-infrared wavelengths cuts through the thick lanes of dust that obscure Centaurus A’s centre in visible light, showing a densely packed tapestry of individual stars and an active, everchanging galaxy. These images mark four years of better-than-anticipated performance and successful science operations for the most powerful space telescope in history. Centaurus A (also known as NGC 5128) is 11 million light-years away from Earth, relatively close in cosmic terms. Yet, unlike most nearby galaxies, it is very active, making it a powerful laboratory for understanding how galaxies and black holes grow and evolve together. At its core sits a supermassive black hole actively feeding on surrounding material. As it does, the black hole launches powerful jets and releases enormous amounts of energy, shaping the galaxy around it. At the same time, Centaurus A bears the scars of a dramatic past: a major collision with another galaxy roughly two billion years ago. The aftermath of that merger is still visible today in its unusual structure and ongoing star formation. Visible light observations from the NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope could not reveal the central region where dust blocked the view, while NASA’s retired Spitzer Space Telescope revealed large scale structures in the infrared without resolving individual stars. Now, Webb brings both clarity and depth, exposing the galaxy’s inner workings star by star. Article Link: https://science.nasa.gov/missions/webb/nasa-webb-uncovers-unusual-galaxy-shaped-by-cosmic-collision/ Pic Description [Top]: NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope’s Mid-Infrared Instrument (MIRI) reveals the nearby galaxy Centaurus A, exposing the dusty structures and hidden activity that shape this unusual system. Webb’s infrared vision unveils intricate filaments, loops, and glowing clouds of warm dust stretching across its center. At the heart of the galaxy, an actively feeding supermassive black hole shines brightly, surrounded by complex structures sculpted by a past galactic collision and ongoing activity. Pic Description [Middle]: What may first appear as a grainy glow is actually a dense field of millions of individually resolved stars. By distinguishing different generations of stars embedded throughout the dusty center, Webb gives astronomers new clues to the galaxy’s history and the processes that continue to shape it.

"Indescribable free gift" search options. May I put forward some suggestions. I am not sure if you want to search the 'topic' or search for exactly the same phrase or words in the NWT or other translations. The first step is to type the words in the search section at the top. (Pic-1) This gives 3 search sections: Top verses; All verses; Articles This will find the exact match (Pic-2) And also some articles (Pic-3) The quickest search for information specific to the verse, is to press on the '💎' (Gem) logo. (Pic-4) This opens the side (or secondary) pane specific to this verse. (Pic-5) There you can find articles, topics and referenced scriptures. A final option: If you are in a verse (like Pic-2), you can also press and hold on the word. This pops up a box. (Pic-6) Move to the right arrow, and it will show an option called "Topic". This too will give insight to the verse and 'Topics'. I hope this helps. (There may be others too. These are the ones I use.) And you also can go out of the app to the WOL (online library), and search online there. (Pic-8) This will also allow examination of the word search and index search as well as the scripture index. There are many powerful operators (and/or *) and search options available online. I think there is a video on these online search options. (And I think they work on the CD/DVD version as well.)

Did they count time in "Days" before the 'first' creative 'day'?

I wonder how angels count time? Do they sleep? Do they have a 'Daily' routine! How long is a day?

NASA’s Webb Reveals Stars Sparking to Life in Cosmic Celebration Release date: 2 July 2026 10am: ID 2026-124 NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope has captured the infrared light of numerous features that previously were impossible to see beyond the thick dust of the FS Tau star system. In addition to myriad background galaxies that burst into view like fireworks for the United States’ 250th anniversary celebrations, this image flickers with a number of protostars, or baby stars that are formed from dense pockets of gas and dust. These hot, clumpy, and low-mass objects eventually will become full-fledged stars capable of burning hydrogen in their cores, like our Sun. The protostars of FS Tau are about 1 to 3 million years old, which is relatively young in cosmic scales. Our Sun, by contrast, is 4.6 billion years old. Low-mass stars emit less radiation and have less energetic stellar winds than those with larger masses, which means they disrupt their environment at a much lower level. This makes the FS Tau region incredibly useful for studying low-mass star evolution without the same level of environmental interference seen near higher-mass stars. A pair of protostars that creates the largest diffraction pattern seen slightly to the left of center in the image, called FS Tau A, is about half the mass of our Sun. Article Link: https://science.nasa.gov/missions/webb/nasas-webb-reveals-stars-sparking-to-life-in-cosmic-celebration/ Pic Description: In infrared light, NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope reveals bright protostars in star system. FS Tau A, a pair of protostars that creates the largest diffraction pattern slightly to the left of center, is about half the mass of our Sun. FS Tau B, the orange protostar slightly right of center, is thought to be responsible for the red (molecular hydrogen) and orange (soot-like molecules known as polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons) outflows that we see amid the dusty region. The blue ridges are areas where light has been scattered by dust. The different colors of the background galaxies indicate how much dust is in front of them, as dust both absorbs and scatters light. Redder galaxies lie behind larger amounts of dust, yellower galaxies lie behind thinner layers of dust, and whiter galaxies are mostly unobstructed. Pic 2 [Bottom] A comparison between the observations of FS Tau by NASA’s Hubble and James Webb space telescopes. Hubble’s visible-light view shows the star-forming region mostly obscured by thick dust. Webb sees through the dust, revealing how the protostars are shaping their surroundings.

Hubble Details Early Galaxy Transforming Neighborhood 23 June 2026 10am Release ID: 2026-014 Researchers show that a galaxy’s young, tightly packed stars converted nearby gas from opaque to clear only 1.4 billion years after the big bang. Astronomers have demonstrated how one galaxy that existed when the cosmos was only 1.4 billion years old transformed the gas in and around itself: Light from its young, massive, closely clustered stars blasted through opaque, electrically neutral gas, causing it to ionize and clear. This galaxy, cataloged MXDFz4.4, lived at a time when a universal event known as the Era of Reionization was wrapping up. MXDFz4.4 is the earliest of its kind. It is the only galaxy at this distance to date that appears in a deep Hubble Space Telescope survey in a particular visible-light filter that uniquely captures the energetic light escaping from its young stars. “Hubble returned the only view that shows the galaxy’s ionizing photons — light capable of clearing the ‘fog’ in and around the galaxy,” explained Ilias Goovaerts, the first author of a new paper in the Astrophysical Journal and a postdoctoral fellow at the Space Telescope Science Institute (STScI) in Baltimore, Maryland. Article link: https://www.stsci.edu/contents/news-releases/2026/news-2026-014/ Pic Description: Detailed visible-light images from Hubble reveal that several bursts of younger stars cleared the space in and around galaxy MXDFz4.4. Astronomers have long sought evidence to explain this transition — and Hubble has provided the first example in this time period.

NASA’s Webb Pinpoints Millions of Stars Within Cigar Galaxy Goddard Space Center 23 June 2026 10am ID weic2612c By piercing through thick dust, new details of galaxy M82 shine through. The James Webb Space Telescope has provided an in-depth look at edge-on spiral galaxy Messier 82 (M82), a prototypical starburst galaxy that is forming stars 10 times faster than our own Milky Way galaxy. This dynamic environment has previously garnered observations by many observatories, including the Hubble and retired Spitzer space telescopes. First imaged by Webb in 2024, a team of astronomers has recently revisited the scene with the telescope as part of an imaging survey, seeking to untangle the complex evolutionary history of this one-of-a-kind galaxy. Their observations reveal millions of stars and powerful outflows of gas and dust. Article link: https://science.nasa.gov/missions/webb/nasas-webb-pinpoints-millions-of-stars-within-cigar-galaxy/ Video link: Pic Description: Scientists used NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope to image edge-on starburst galaxy Messier 82 and trace its evolutionary history. This Webb and Hubble composite image includes 16.5 million stars (blue-white), dust grains (red-orange), and ionized hydrogen gas (yellow). Credits: Image: NASA, ESA, CSA, Adam Smercina (STScI, Tufts), Thomas Williams (University of Manchester); Image Processing: Alyssa Pagan (STScI) Pic 2 (Bottom) Description: This side-by-side comparison shows the same region of M82 as seen by Hubble (left) and Webb (right). Hubble’s visible-light view is limited because of the amount of dust within M82, which shrouds the galaxy’s details. Bright, bluish light radiating from the centre is due to star formation. A notable thick lane of dust, black in the centre and red around the edges, diagonally stretches across the scene. Thinner strands and clumps of reddish dust cover the majority of the view.

James Webb telescope finds a cosmic cloud of creation buried in the Sword of Orion By Jamie Carter 10 hours ago A new James Webb telescope snap shows off the glowing gas, sculpted jets and newborn stars lurking within the giant cosmic cloud OMC-2, located in the Sword of Orion. ... perhaps the most striking feature of the image is the network of pale, glowing streams and wave-like structures cutting through the cloud. These are created by protostar jets as they collide with the surrounding material, carving out bright ridges and shock fronts. The result is an image that looks sculpted, with curved streams of whitish gas marking how young stars shape their environment. Each jet, ridge and shadow provides clues about the movement of material through the region and helps astronomers trace how stars form and how their energy changes the surrounding cloud. Its colors and textures reveal a complex environment where gravity pulls material together, young stars ignite and energetic outflows reshape the cloud that gave rise to them.

Here is the link to the YouTube video: CHAPTER 1: THE CAMBRIAN EXPLOSION The Cambrian Explosion represents one of the most abrupt changes in the entire fossil record. Below the Cambrian, some relatively simple organisms are known, but above the Cambrian, an “explosion” of complex animals appears for the first time. DARWIN’S DILEMMA begins with computer animation of some of these creatures, then tells the story of the Burgess Shale in Canada where spectacular fossils of Cambrian animals came to light in the early 20th century. DARWIN’S DILEMMA is based on the book Darwin’s Doubt by Dr Stephen Meyer. Production was completed in 2009. The documentary presents fossil evidence that defies Darwinian evolution and supports Meyer’s argument that the Cambrian fossil record gives strong evidence for intelligent design. https://youtu.be/g-C3ifVAnrQ?is=t2dWwDoPIqddhwEH

The latest update #4 has a cross to Harold Corkern. He says the following: "In April 2026, the United States received a branch visit for the first time since 2014. The U.S. branch is unique in that we have five different complexes. We have Wallkill, Patterson, Warwick, Fishkill, and San Juan. The Governing Body decided that from now on, the United States will receive a branch visit each year focusing on one of our Bethel complexes." [Brooklyn does not get a ment ion.]

New link to video dropped recently .Here is the release information: Cambrian Explosion Remains the Gift that Keeps on Giving By David Coppedge 5 June 2026 https://scienceandculture.com/2026/06/cambrian-explosion-remains-the-gift-that-keeps-on-giving/ The Cambrian Explosion has been on my mind for a long time. I’ve been on the board of Illustra Media since its founding in 1997, and am proud of one of the company’s finest documentaries on intelligent design, Darwin’s Dilemma (2009). On the subject of that Cambrian classic, I have good news to share. It has been behind a paywall for 17 years — unless you speak a foreign language. Versions in German and Mandarin Chinese have been on Illustra’s YouTube channel since 2019, but English speakers could only buy the DVD or stream it. That all changed this year. The excellent full-length video, sharing much material with Stephen Meyer’s later New York Times bestselling book Darwin’s Doubt (2013), is now freely available on YouTube. And that’s not all: there are Bonus Features, too... But Wait; There’s More Another request I had been making of Lad and Jerry over years was to rescue some of the Bonus Features in their documentaries from the memory hole. Bonus Features were only available on the DVD versions. There were some real gems among them. Jerry went the extra step of uploading a key Bonus Feature from Darwin’s Dilemma: 22 questions about the Cambrian Explosion, biological information, and the positive case for intelligent design, answered by five ID leaders: Douglas Axe, Paul Nelson, Richard Sternberg, Jonathan Wells, and Stephen Meyer. It’s good to revisit the eloquence of our distinguished late colleague Dr. Jonathan Wells. These short clips, one to four minutes in length, can be very useful for sharing on social media in response to evolutionary claims. Friends of the ID movement will enjoy seeing how these ID spokesmen looked back in the day! And now, the Q&A features from Unlocking are up, too.

A heart-rending read. And this is just one (of many thousands) of sad stories.
