Is that 3 mins and 28 seconds? Or is it 3 1/2 hours? 

I could not find it. I only found a 46 min one.

I don't have time for that right now.

NASA's Webb Space Telescope Reveals Glittering Universe With Its Largest Image Yet

Some of these galaxies may seem familiar. Others warrant a longer stare. 

 

For the James Webb Space Telescope, milestones have been unyielding. A little more than a month since this trailblazing machine left humanity in amazement following the release of its first astonishing deep field, its vivid nebular portraits and its shots of galactic muses, it's endowed us with its largest image yet. 

 

This week, international scientists affiliated with the Cosmic Evolution Early Release Science Survey, or CEERS, presented an enormous, full-color mosaic born of data gathered by the JWST. It's a record-breaking mural known as Epoch 1, and covers a small patch of sky near the handle of the Big Dipper constellation.

New image from Webb shows galaxy NGC 1365, known to have an actively feeding supermassive black hole

by Matt Williams , Universe Today

 

The James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) continues to deliver stunning images of the universe, demonstrating that the years of development and delays were well worth the wait. The latest comes from Judy Schmidt, an astrophotographer who processed an image taken by Webb of the barred spiral galaxy NGC 1365. Also known as the Great Barred Spiral Galaxy, NGC 1365 is a double-barred spiral galaxy consisting of a long bar and a smaller barred structure located about 56 million light-years away in the southern constellation Fornax.

 

Measuring over 200,000 light-years in diameter, roughly twice as large as the Milky Way, NGC 1365 is noted for the way its wide arms extend from its central bar to give it a Z-like appearance. The galaxy was selected for observations by JWST because of its iconic nature and how much of its interior structure is obscured by dust. In particular, its second bar is more prominent in infrared images, and previous instruments (like the Hubble and Spitzer space telescopes) have been limited in terms of what they could visualize.

James Webb: Space telescope reveals 'incredible' Jupiter views

 

The world's largest and most powerful space telescope has revealed unprecedented views of Jupiter.

 

The James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) took the pictures of the solar system's biggest planet in July.

 

The images show auroras, giant storms, moons and rings surrounding Jupiter in detail that astronomers have described as "incredible".

 

The infrared photographs were artificially coloured to make the features stand out.

The Biggest Diamond Ever Found In Space!

Lucy is also the bigger diamond ever found. Researchers had found that about 90% of Lucy’s mass must crystallized, and since Lucy’s inner core is mostly made of Carbon, it can only mean one thing. At 10 billion trillion trillion carats, not merely is this diamond ever…it squeezes the last diamond to grip the record. It is speculated that our Sun will one day go over the same stage. After it explodes its external shell and turn into a white dwarf, it also will crystallize and live out its end of days in remarkable form, celebrating its own Diamond Jubilee.

'Ridiculously Detailed' New Image of The Moon Is a Masterpiece of Space Photography
SPACE
24 August 2022
By CLARE WATSON

Time to upgrade your wallpapers, people.

Two astrophotographers have just dropped what they call "the most ridiculously detailed picture" of the Moon – the result of a painstaking, neck-craning effort roughly two years and over 200,000 frames in the making...

https://www.sciencealert.com/ridiculously-detailed-new-image-of-the-moon-is-a-masterpiece-of-space-photography


"The Hunt for Artemis" is a collaborative tribute to the upcoming Artemis 1 mission- the first launch of NASA's new human-rated lunar rocket: the SLS (Space Launch System)

For US$50:
The image is a 174 megapixel blend of thousands of images, with Connor providing the exquisite color through his expert use of powerful astronomical instruments, while Andrew provided the detailed lunar texture with his unique "lucky imaging" and mosaicking technique. The result is an image that has incredible detail, even on exceptionally large print sizes.

I like this quote from this article:

So we can assume that the universe got started but we are a little less sure just now how that happened.

You now can now listen to the pictures. I gather the technique of scaling the invisible data to give 'colour' to our eyes, can likewise be used to scale it down to give an audible rendition as well. 

Now you can hear what space looks like! 

Click on the videos in the article to hear the pics. They have a moving soundbar tracking the image as it 'plays'.

New Tracks Combine Science and Art, Improving Experiences for Blind and Low-Vision Communities

 

A team of experts, including scientists and musicians, has created a new way to explore the images and data of NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope. The first two tracks map the prismatic landscapes of the Cosmic Cliffs in the Carina Nebula as well as two views of the Southern Ring Nebula. A third track plays the notes of a transmission spectrum, which graphs the atmospheric characteristics of hot gas giant exoplanet WASP-96 b. All allow listeners to pick out key features and experience the data in a new way.

A new story of star formation unfolds.

 

NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope presents a new perspective on 30 Doradus, or the Tarantula Nebula, a region well-known to astronomers studying star formation. Its nickname once came from its resemblance to the spider itself, but in Webb’s view the overall region takes on the appearance of a tarantula’s home—a burrow lined with its own spun silk. The Tarantula Nebula shelters thousands of young and still-forming stars, many revealed by Webb for the first time.

What is so important about the James Webb’s big old galaxies?

By Paula Ferreira

September 1, 2022

During the first two weeks of early releases from the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST), four papers broke the records of the oldest galaxies detected. Until then, the oldest galaxy known was discovered by the Hubble Space Telescope (a galaxy called GN-z11 which we believe existed 13.4 billion years ago) — but the JWST found a galaxy that stretched back to 13.8 billion years ago, just 300 million years after the Big Bang.

 

In addition to being just an impressive picture, this discovery could change the very way we think about the universe.

 

When we look at objects that are far away, we aren’t just looking across large distances — we’re looking back in time. When something is, say, 1 light year away from us, it took light one year to reach us, so we’re seeing the object as it was one year ago. If we’re looking at something that’s one million light years away, we’re seeing it as it was one million years ago; and if we’re looking at something billions of light years away, well, you get it by now.

The James Webb Space Telescope has provided its first views of the Orion Nebula, revealing infant stars and the filaments that feed them.


The James Webb Space Telescope zoomed in on the Orion Nebula this week, sharing with us a clearer picture of the giant stellar nursery.


Even at 1,350 light-years away, the nursery is visible to our unaided eyes as a pale smear beneath the three-starred belt of Orion. It has been the target of many an amateur astronomer/astrophotographer, as well as the Hubble and Spitzer Space Telescopes. But Webb has provided the clearest and most unique picture to date, its Near-Infrared Camera peering through the dust that enshrouds the infant stars.

Webb Observes Powerful Starburst Ring in NGC 7469

Sep 14, 2022 by Natali Anderson

Astronomers using the NASA/ESA/CSA James Webb Space Telescope have discovered 36 new star-forming regions in a circumnuclear starburst ring in the barred spiral galaxy NGC 7469.
 

In their study, the astronomers analyzed the new images of NGC 7469’s starburst ring obtained with Webb’s Near-Infrared Camera (NIRCam) and the Mid-InfraRed Instrument (MIRI).

 

They identified a total of 65 star-forming regions, 36 of which were not detected in previous observations.

 

They also found that 19 of these regions are very dusty and host very young — less than 5 million years old — stellar populations.

 

“These results illustrate the effectiveness of Webb in identifying and characterizing previously hidden star formation in the densest star-forming environments around active galactic nuclei,” the researchers said.

Infrared Observations Tease Out Never Seen Atmospheric and Ring Details

Neptune lurks in one of the dimmest parts of our solar system. With its complex rings, bizarre moon, Triton, and roaring winds faster than the speed of sound here on Earth, Neptune has long perplexed astronomers. Just one spacecraft, Voyager 2, has ever visited this far-flung planet, and observations from both space- and ground-based telescopes over the years have tracked the many turbulent storms...

 

Now, NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope’s first look at this ice giant is giving us a long-awaited glimpse of those crisp rings and teasing out details of its mysterious storms.

Neptune’s 164-year orbit means its northern pole, at the top of this image, is just out of view for astronomers, but the Webb images hint at an intriguing brightness in that area. A previously-known vortex at the southern pole is evident in Webb’s view, but for the first time Webb has revealed a continuous band of high-latitude clouds surrounding it.

 

Webb also captured seven of Neptune’s 14 known moons. Dominating this Webb portrait of Neptune is a very bright point of light sporting the signature diffraction spikes seen in many of Webb’s images, but this is not a star. Rather, this is Neptune’s large and unusual moon, Triton.

WHAT IN THE WEBB IS GOING ON HERE?

World Wide Webb

NASA has assembled an "anomaly review board" and paused some of the James Webb Space Telescope's operations after discovering a glitch with one of the expensive craft's integral imaging instruments.

In an update yesterday, the agency said that the extremely expensive and delicate telescope's Mid-Infrared Instrument (MIRI) camera and spectrograph appear to have developed an issue when shifting into medium-resolution spectroscopy (MRS), one of the instrument's four observing modes that detects and maps light wavelengths invisible to the human eye.

Per the statement, one of the instrument's mechanisms, described as "a grating wheel that allows scientists to select between short, medium, and longer wavelengths," seemed to exhibit "increased friction" during setup.

Translation: the telescope's sensitive MIRI instrument can't switch gears the way it's supposed to, and NASA appears pretty uncertain as to why that's happening. It doesn't sound like a catastrophe from what we're hearing now, but for anything as inaccessible, breakable and eye-wateringly pricey as the Webb, stakeholders are doubtless immensely concerned.


"MIRI’s other three observing modes — imaging, low-resolution spectroscopy, and coronagraphy — are operating normally and remain available for science observations," NASA added.
