Technically not JWST but DECam

 

The Dark Energy Camera has Captured a Million Images, an Eighth of the Entire sky. Here are Some of its Best Pictures so far - Universe Today

 

Between 2013 and 2019, the DECam took over one million exposures of the southern night sky and photographed around 2.5 billion astronomical objects – including galaxies, galaxy clusters, stars, comets, asteroids, dwarf planets, and supernovae. For our viewing pleasure, the Dark Energy Survey recently released fifteen spectacular images taken by the DECam during the six-year campaign. These images showcase the capabilities of the DECam, the types of objecs it observed, and the sheer beauty of the Universe

Titanic Stellar Collision Rattles Space and Time

October 12, 2022 11:00AM (EDT)

Release ID: 2022-029

 

Neutron stars are the "trash-compacted" surviving cores of massive stars that exploded. Weighing more than our Sun, they would fit inside New York City. At this unimaginable density, one teaspoon of surface material would weigh at least 4 billion tons on Earth... 

 

The incredible precision, gleaned from Hubble and radio telescopes, needed to measure the blob's trajectory, was equivalent to measuring the diameter of a 12-inch-diameter pizza placed on the Moon as seen from Earth. This was a major watershed in the ongoing investigation of neutron star collisions that keep ringing throughout the universe.

NASA’s Webb Takes Star-Filled Portrait of Pillars of Creation

 

This glittering view of the Pillars of Creation was delivered by NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope’s Near-Infrared Camera – and it begs to be examined pixel by pixel. The scene may look both familiar and entirely new – NASA’s Hubble Space Telescope viewed it first in 1995 and followed up in 2014, and many other telescopes have stared deeply at this scene. But this is the first time an observatory has delivered such detailed data in near-infrared light. Newly formed stars pop out in shades of pink, red, and crimson. Still-forming stars that remain hidden deep in dusty pillars resemble molten lava, and fully formed blue and yellow stars sprinkle the scene. Where are the galaxies that “photobomb” many of Webb’s images? The pillars are located directly in front of our Milky Way galaxy’s disk, which blocks our view of galaxies that lie behind it. It is also lit up by the collective light from the packed “party” of stars. With these new data, researchers will be able to update complex models of star formation with even more precise star counts and dust quantities. We are about to learn a whole lot more about how stars form.

A new, near-infrared-light view from NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope, at right, helps us peer through more of the dust in this star-forming region. The thick, dusty brown pillars are no longer as opaque and many more red stars that are still forming come into view.

While the pillars of gas and dust seem darker and less penetrable in Hubble’s view, they appear more diaphanous in Webb’s.

This image of dust clouds in the sky entitled “Pillars of Creation” may be familiar to some of our brothers and sisters. It had made an appearance in a front cover image for one of our publication from 1999, Is There a Creator Who Cares About You?

 

*** ct p. 192 Back Cover ***

The cover photo was taken in 1995 from a space telescope. The gaseous dust clouds are in the Eagle Nebula. Scientists believe that stars are forming in these clouds, which are termed “Pillars of Creation.”

We are in good company when asking, What caused the universe, our planet, and our life on it? And how does this relate to our finding a satisfying meaning in life?

Comparing both the old and the new Pillars of Creation photos is quite interesting experience. It’s something no one would have imagined when that book was first released. We are able to look into the universe much deeper now. The Pillars of Creation shows even more of awe inspiring God’s creation. The Heavens truly declare God’s glory.—Psalm 19:1.

Haunting Portrait: NASA’s Webb Reveals Dust, Structure in Pillars of Creation

 

Webb Highlights the Velvet-Like Lining of Dust Throughout This Star-Forming Region, Including Shells Around Actively Forming Stars

 

In mid-infrared light, the Pillars of Creation appear otherworldly. NASA’S James Webb Space Telescope has delivered a scene that is large and lofty – and appears lit by flickering lanterns. A “ghost” haunts the crag in the lower left, a gargoyle-like shape snarls toward the middle of the frame, and a dark horse’s head charges out of the edge of the second pillar. The creepiest of all? Newly formed stars take on the appearance of protruding, bloodshot eyes. And in the background, dust dances like heavy, ancient curtains being pulled shut. Here, there is no raven to whisper, “Nevermore,” to harken the classic poem by Edgar Allan Poe.

NASA's Webb Draws Back Curtain on Universe's Early Galaxies

November 17, 2022 10:00AM (EST)Release ID: 2022-044

Telescope’s Infrared Vision Explores the Final Frontier

 

NASA’s powerful James Webb Space Telescope has found an unexpectedly rich “undiscovered country” of early galaxies that has been largely hidden until now.

 

Webb is unveiling a very rich universe where the first forming galaxies look remarkably different from the mature galaxies seen around us today. Researchers found two exceptionally bright galaxies that existed approximately 350 and 450 million years after the big bang. Their extreme brightness is puzzling to astronomers. The young galaxies are transforming gas into stars extremely rapidly. They appear compacted in spherical or disk shapes that are much smaller than our Milky Way galaxy. The onset of stellar birth may have started just 100 million years after the big bang, which happened 13.8 billion years ago.

 

Follow-up spectroscopic observations with Webb should confirm the distances to these remote galaxies, and also reveal the rate of star formation and elemental abundances in the makeup of the early stars.

An International team of astronomers has used data from NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope to report the discovery of the earliest galaxies confirmed to date. The light from these galaxies has taken more than 13.4 billion years to reach us, as these galaxies date back to less than 400 million years after the big bang, when the universe was only 2% of its current age.

JWST Breaks Record For Most Distant Galaxy Ever Detected

SPACE

12 December 2022

ByMICHELLE STARR

 

The two Hubble galaxies have redshifts of 10.38 and 11.58. The JWST's new discoveries have redshifts of 12.63 and 13.20 – the latter of which is equivalent to about 13.5 billion light-years....

 

Other candidates at higher redshifts are currently under investigation, but are yet to be confirmed. Given that JWST hasn't even been operational for six months yet, it probably won't be too long before the record is broken

A DEEP GRAVITATIONAL SINKHOLE SWALLOWS UNLUCKY BYPASSING STAR

Black holes have such a voracious gravitational pull that they even swallow light. This makes them hungry monsters lurking in the eternal darkness. There’s no escape if you happen to stumble across one in the inky blackness of space. That’s no worry for astronauts who have yet to travel farther than the Moon. But entire stars can face that peril if they wind up in the wrong place at the wrong time...
