We just love stuff like this!💥😊 Astronomers have discovered an entirely new class of #cosmic object: a “black hole star”! Dubbed MoM‑BH*‑1, the object looks like a star but shines ~100 billion times brighter & is wrapped in a solar‑system‑sized cloud of hydrogen - & may be the first of many! #JWST theguardian.com/science/2026/a…

Astronomers discover a new kind of cosmic object – a black hole ‘star’

The body is the size of the entire solar system and glows with a brilliant red light billions of light years from Earth

If you are worried about the #ESAEuclid satellite losing power during the upcoming #solareclipse, worry no more: all telescopes at Lagrange Point 2 (#Euclid and #JWST, formerly also #ESAGaia) have orbits designed to be free of solar eclipses. They simply are never in locations where the Moon could eclipse the sun.

The four Artemis II astronauts just set a record for human distance from Earth, 400.000 km. This also explains why "service" missions to #ESAEuclid, #JWST, or #ESAGaia are unlikely (and currently impossible): their location at the Sun-Earth L2-point is ~1.5 million km from here.

JWST NIRCam and MIRI image of Arp 142, also known as NGC 2936, NGC 2937, and UGC 5130, or the Penguin and the Egg.

The Penguin is a spiral galaxy whose shape has been distorted by the gravity of the elliptical Egg galaxy. The two are about 100,000 light-years apart and completed a close pass between 25 and 75 million years ago.

Interacting Galaxies Arp 142 (NIRCam and MIRI Image) - NASA Science

This “penguin party” is loud! The distorted spiral galaxy at center, the Penguin, and the compact elliptical galaxy at left, the Egg, are locked in an active embrace.

Von heute, dem 25.10.2023, bis zum 31.10.2023 wird im #Astronomiemuseum der #Sternwarte #Sonneberg die Wanderausstellung "Unser größtes Auge im All" präsentiert. Diese Ausstellung bietet den Besuchern die Gelegenheit, faszinierende Einblicke in das #James #Webb #Space #Telescope (JWST) zu gewinnen. Ein zentrales #Exponat dieser #Ausstellung ist ein maßstabsgetreues Modell des #JWST im Maßstab 1:10, welches einen realistischen Eindruck von diesem bedeutenden Weltraumteleskop vermittelt.

Holy sjit! The #LEGO version of the #JWST :legoLogo: :lego_like:

Even if the current Distances and Speed of the James Webb Space Telescope on its way to orbit are shown from precalculated flight dynamics data, this page is sill is mesmerizing to me.

Where Is Webb? NASA/Webb

'WhereIsWebb' shows the status of Webb on its journey to L2 orbit. The page constantly updates as Webb travels, deploys, and cools to operating temperature.
