James Webb Space Telescope (2 Viewers)

Google says 4 billion for Andromeda and a 1 billion till the sun boils off the oceans.
But it'll actually take longer for the sun to die from what I've read.
 
A world-renowned scientist has been forced to apologise after he shared what he claimed was a stunning picture of a star – and turned out to be a slice of chorizo.

Étienne Klein, a celebrated French physicist, shared an image of what he said was Proxima Centauri, the nearest star to Earth. He said the picture had been taken by the James Webb Space Telescope, from which a host of stunning images had been revealed in recent weeks……




The chorizo is still pretty awe-inspiring.
 
Hubble has captured a new photo of the Orion Nebula, and it is absolutely breathtaking. The photo is mostly centered around a celestial cloudscape in the nebula, which includes a Herbig-Haro object known as HH 505. Herbig-Haro objects are luminous regions that surround newborn stars. The image is stunning and a great reminder that Hubble has plenty of life left in it.

The European Space Agency (ESA) says the outflows that create HH 505 come from a star known as IX Ori. The star itself lies on the outskirts of the Orion Nebula, roughly 1000 light-years away from the Earth. You can see the outflows along the top and bottom of the new Orion photo captured by Hubble.

Hubble captured the image using its Advanced Camera for Surveys. Astronomers watched the nebula to study the properties of outflows and protoplanetary discs. The capture looks like a mixture of colorful clouds peacefully floating through space. Of course, in the middle of that mixture is HH 505, which gives the image an even more intriguing look.............

Nice photo.....until Webb takes aim at it. Hubble is still useful but is no longer the BMOC.

Hallowed are the Ori
 
love this stuff

spent a week in rural Ontario, where I always do some stargazing. Had my 7 y/o niece with me and we found the star, Sadr, in the sky. I told her the light we were seeing at that moment was sent not too far from the time that Jesus was alive.

She didn't understand, so I explained it to her and we spent the next half hour talking about this stuff and then I showed her images from JW and we were both mesmerized.
 
NASA released the first images from the James Webb space telescope in July and the spacecraft hasn’t stopped yet. On top of official image releases, the raw data captured by the telescope has yielded an amazing amount of material, too. One of the latest images comes to us from an astronomy graduate and it gives us a mesmerizing view of the Great Barred Spiral Galaxy.

The Great Barred Spiral Galaxy is more formally known as NGC 1365. It is located around 56 million light years away from Earth. The galaxy is a star-forming galaxy with an actively feeding supermassive black hole—one akin to our own Milky Way black hole.

The galaxy is also “face-on” towards Earth, which gives astronomers a perfect view of its double-barred structure.........
