A Christmas Star

[Anonymous]

On the Dec 21st you might get to see one.

I get quite excited about stuff like this, and being the first time in a long(lol) time I'm hoping for clear skies!

Webb's cosmic hourglass image

JWST's latest image is of a protostar embedded within an hourglass-shaped cosmic cloud

The star is just 100,000 years old and thought to be in the earliest stages of star formation.

Historically, full moon names were used to track the seasons. June's full moon, often the last of spring or the first of summer, is traditionally called the strawberry moon.

@TallTrees 

That's absolutely stunning!

Seems quite wild and wonderful out there @Cleoriff 

Wonder if it is noisy 🤔 

All that crashing and exploding

@TallTrees 

I was looking at the first image you posted, missed out on the cosmic hour glass image and the Strawberry moon. All absolutely beautiful. ❤️

Scientists used the powerful $10 billion James Webb Space Telescope to peer into some of the deepest cosmos, and for the first time captured views of star clusters inside an extremely ancient galaxy. In the image you're viewing these star clusters, which are gravitationally bound groupings of stars, as they existed just 460 million years after the universe's creation. That's looking through 97 percent of cosmic time.

Hi @Cleoriff 

True.  We'll probably see it without trying much, my style of moon watching 😂
