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.

Voici une illustration des résultats d'observations du télescope spatial James #Webb qui montre pour la première fois l'engloutissement d'une planète de la taille de Jupiter par son étoile.
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).

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.

Explanation:
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. The fast jet particles impact the surrounding interstellar gas and form shock waves that glow prominently in infrared light -- shown here as reddish-brown ridges. This JWST image also resolved the mystery of the unusual object at HH 49's tip: it is a spiral galaxy far in the distance. The blue center is therefore not one star but many, and the surrounding circular rings are actually spiral arms.

#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.

(27 Mar) This Is the First-Ever Image of Neptune’s Auroral Glow

Captured by Webb, it's the first direct evidence of auroras on the most distant planet from the Sun.
