earthling<p>HH 49: Interstellar Jet from Webb</p><p>What's at the tip of this interstellar jet? First let's consider the jet: it is being expelled by a star system just forming and is cataloged as Herbig-Haro 49 (HH 49). The star system expelling this jet is not visible -- it is off to the lower right. The complex conical structure featured in this infrared image by the James Webb Space Telescope also includes another jet cataloged as HH 50.</p><p>Image Credit: NASA, ESA, CSA, STScI, JWST</p><p><a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/astrophotography" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>astrophotography</span></a> <br><a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/JWST" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>JWST</span></a></p>

Bob Tregilus<p>Wow, a stunning image by JWST of an Einstein ring, a more distant galaxy's light being bent by gravitational lensing around a much closer galaxy. The closer galaxy is an elliptical and the much more distant galaxy, which in this case is perfectly aligned behind the foreground elliptical thereby forming the ring, is a spiral galaxy. I think this beautiful image is going to be my desktop for awhile.

Bob Tregilus<p>Wow wee, wow wow! JWST just keeps raising more questions than it's answering--&amp; that's a good thing! JWST discovered that the toddler galaxy, GS-z13-1--which existed just 330 million years after the Big Bang--had ionized the ancestral neutral hydrogen that surrounded it allowing its light to transverse the universe &amp; reach JWST. According to present hypothesis, that's incredibly early for a galaxy to have done that. <a href="https://www.esa.int/Science_Exploration/Space_Science/Webb/Webb_sees_galaxy_mysteriously_clearing_fog_of_early_Universe" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">esa.int/Science_Exploration/Sp</span><span class="invisible">ace_Science/Webb/Webb_sees_galaxy_mysteriously_clearing_fog_of_early_Universe</span></a></p><p><a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/Astronomy" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Astronomy</span></a> <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/AstroPhysics" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>AstroPhysics</span></a> <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/Cosmos" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Cosmos</span></a> <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/JWST" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>JWST</span></a> <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/Science" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Science</span></a></p>
