Planetary #Nebula NGC 1514 from #Webb
When a star like the Sun dies, it forms a white dwarf and expels its outer layers as a planetary nebula. NGC 1514's chaotic bubbles in visible light form an hourglass shape in #infrared from JWST, hinting at a cylindrical structure seen diagonally with a binary system at its core.

The Galactic Center in Radio from MeerKAT
MeerKAT's radio image reveals the Milky Way's center, including Sgr A with its supermassive black hole. The vast 2-degree view details many celestial features, while JWST's inset probes star formation and magnetic fields. Optical telescopes can't see this due to dust.

L'orbite de la planète s'est lentement dégradée au fil du temps (1->2). La planète a été complètement engloutie par l'étoile et a soufflé du gaz loin des couches extérieures de l'étoile (3).

Die US-Regierung plant drastische Kürzungen im #NASA-Wissenschaftsbudget – von 7,3 auf 3,9 Milliarden Dollar.
Betroffen wären zentrale Missionen wie die Probenentnahme auf dem Mars und das Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope.
Lediglich #Hubble und #Webb sollen weiterhin finanziert werden. Fachleute bezeichnen die Vorschläge als tiefgreifend und warnen vor dem Verlust laufender und geplanter Projekte.

The #Hubble & #Webb space #telescopes —celebrated for their long list of discoveries as well as stunning images of the #universe — would remain supported under the proposal. However, no other telescope would be funded.
APOD killing it as usual.

HH 49: Interstellar Jet from #Webb
James Webb's #infrared image reveals a Herbig-Haro jet (HH 49) from a forming star system, with glowing shock waves. At the jet's tip lies a distant spiral #galaxy, its blue core and circular rings visible behind the interstellar outflow.

#Jupiter and Ring in #Infrared from #Webb
Jupiter's rings, discovered by Voyager 1 in 1979, are formed by meteoroid impacts on small moons like Metis, ejecting dust into orbit. The James Webb Space #Telescope's infrared image captures these rings, Jupiter's clouds, the Great Red Spot, #moon Europa, and its shadow. Some features remain a mystery.
