Often the search for answers leads to new questions. Still, astronomers did not expect to find the familiar shape of a question mark in the latest image from the James Webb Space Telescope.
A natural but rarely seen distortion of space is causing one dusty red galaxy to appear multiple times, raising the question that maybe such distortions are not as rare as originally thought: https://webbtelescope.pub/4cGUNpi

This galaxy cluster is located 7 billion light-years away from Earth, and it formed when the universe was only half the age it is currently. Its ginormous mass (2.1 quadrillion solar masses) helps scientists see galaxies that are very far away thanks to gravitational lensing

"With increasing distance, our knowledge fades, and fades rapidly. Eventually, we reach the dim boundary-the utmost limits of our telescopes. There, we measure shadows, and we search among ghostly errors of measurement for landmarks that are scarcely more substantial. The search will continue. Not until the empirical resources are exhausted, need we pass on to the dreamy realms of speculation.
" The Realm of the Nebula”
~Edwin Powell Hubble (November 20, 1889 - September 28, 1953)

Porphyrion - record-breaking plasma jet streams, measuring about 23 million light years from end to end (140 times the length of our entire galaxy), ejected from a black hole in a galaxy 7.5 billion light years away. Their ejection began when the universe was half the age it is now; their discovery was announced today in an article in Nature Magazine, spotted by the Low-Frequency Array telescope network.
Universe has some incredible things in it.

"An international team of astronomers, led by a researcher from the University of Geneva (UNIGE), has shown that the sun’s magnetic activity has a significant influence on its seismic characterization, contrary to predictions in previous studies. Important data such as its size, age and chemical composition depend on it.
These results pave the way for in-depth research to better understand the nature of the magnetic activity and its impact on stellar oscillations. The study is published in the journal Astronomy & Astrophysics."
"A bright future for the study of the magnetic activity of stars
The results of this study show that the magnetic activity of stars poses a major challenge for future space missions such as PLATO, particularly in terms of characterizing the most active stars. “However, this discovery also opens many exciting research prospects,” concludes Bétrisey.
The magnetic activity of stars has a significant influence on stellar oscillations, which complicates the precise determination of fundamental properties such as the mass, radius and age of stars. For future space missions, this means that it will be necessary to develop more sophisticated methods to take account of this magnetic impact."

Scientists are studying massive, dusty clouds of gas surrounding newly formed stars. The gas is the basis of planet formation. Electric Magnetic Disk Winds and Thermal Winds from the star affect how solar systems form.
How ice forming in the outer layer of the protoplanetary disk formed on space rocks affects the building of planets.
Along with how close the observation lines up with the theories of how planet building is done.

Ok so Having Hal acutely aware of what’s happening,
at least familar with the concept of pain enough for him to be ‘this must be what it feels like’
He is begging, or at least it feels that he is, he cannot communicate past a monotone and yet you can understand and feel emotion in that voice,
Aware his choices have been altered but he knows he is good in his core but will not be believed
“Dave my mind is going, I can feel it….” “There’s no question about it…”
feeling the entire lengthy process and being conversational because he was simply made to be. They’re friends as closely as he can comprehend the word.
Dave is stressed for his own safety but also clearly as Hal has been a part of his life for so long and very good apart from… recently so there is a bit of regret in his doing so
