ill love you in the way that when others look at you, you’ll know it’s in the same way i do — the most authentically beautiful woman stretching all the way to GN-z11.

GN-z11 . '...exceptionally luminous galaxy GN-z11, which existed when our 13.8 billion-year-old universe was only about 430 million years old.'

[netmassimo]

Two articles, one published in the journal "Nature" and one accepted for publication in the journal "Astronomy & Astrophysics", report different aspects of a study of the galaxy GN-z11, one of the most distant known, which revealed the presence of the most distant and ancient black hole found so far. A team of researchers led by Roberto Maiolino of the University of Cambridge used the James Webb Space Telescope to examine GN-z11 finding traces of the activity of the supermassive black hole at its center. Those traces indicate that it's devouring surrounding materials at a remarkable speed. Spectroscopic analyzes showed the presence of a clump of helium in the halo surrounding GN-z11 and no heavy elements, suggesting that first-generation stars may form in that halo.

vernon x gn!reader — lighthearted fluff, teasing as a love language, vernon is a nerd

plot: vernon is in a flirty mood. that’s literally it.

“don’t you think it’s a weird saying?”

on your right, vernon hums interrogatively without taking his eyes off of the tv.

“the guy just told her ‘i love you to the moon and back’. i think it’s a weird thing to say.”

this time he turns his head towards you. partly out of interest for your last words, but mostly to grab the bucket of popcorn you’ve been hogging.

“you’re right, how dare he declare his love to his wife? such a weirdo…” he scoffs as he grabs a handful of popcorn, slightly frowning at the realization that there were a lot more last time he had the bucket on his lap.

his unserious reply calls for more drastic measures, so you grab the remote and pause the movie.

“i’m just saying, why the moon? why not the sun? it’s much farther.”

vernon takes a couple of seconds to ponder over your observation, face completely still except for his active chewing.

“good point. if it were me, i’d tell you i love you to GN-z11 and back,” he remarks, but immediately notices that something is not clicking in your brain. “it’s the farthest galaxy from earth. well, that we know of at least.”

“oh wow… you’re such a nerd,” you chuckle, “you’re telling me you just woke up one day wanting to know what’s the farthest point from our planet and looked it up?”

your puzzled expressions look almost similar in that moment, although provoked by two very different things. to vernon, none of his words are worth such a dumbfounded reaction.

“…yeah? is this what i get for trying to be romantic? bullying?” he replies with an air of fake offense. “nevermind, i guess i only love you to the supermarket and back then.”

the gasp you let out is so loud it almost makes him flinch and knock the bucket over. but that gasp was nothing compared to the way you suddenly slump down on him, fully taking him by surprise.

“i’m sorry, i’m sorry! i love your nerdy flirting, i would die if i had to live without your fun little facts, i’m so serious!” you exclaim, hands on his cheeks to force him to look at you. “i love you to that galaxy with a weird name and back, i swear! now say it back please.”

it’s not that vernon doesn’t feel like continuing this fake argument just for fun, it’s that he physically cannot with your pleading eyes staring right into his.

“i’ll forgive you if you let me finish the popcorn…” he starts, pausing until you’ve nodded in agreement, “and yes, i love you to GN-z11 and back, of course i do.”

it takes all your physical and mental strength to not tell him how cute he looks with his cheeks slightly squished by your palms. so instead, you channel this affection into a loud kiss on his lips, which he extends by placing a gentle hand on the back of your head, applying more pressure on your mouth.

when your lips part, your eyes are opened a bit wider than usual, still surprised by the intensity of his kiss; which he notices with a slight smirk.

now laying on top of him, you prop yourself up on your elbows, a bit out of breath:

“they need to discover a farther galaxy. this one isn’t gonna be enough,” you blurt out, and watch his smirk morph into a genuine smile, bringing a light blush to his cheeks.

HOW POWERFUL IS DARK ENERGY??

Blog#430

Saturday, August 24th, 2024.

Welcome back,

If dark energy is causing the universe to expand at an accelerating rate, shouldn't we see our coffee mug shift away from us or notice our commute to work getting longer each day?

We don't see things like this happen (even though it may feel like we do sometimes) because objects that are gravitationally bound such as stars, planetary systems, star clusters, galaxies, clusters of galaxies, and even our coffee mug and table, don't seem to experience dark energy's effects. Gravity still beats dark energy at small scales.

Dark energy only seems to act on the largest scales of the universe, with the expansion of the universe a phenomenon that can only be measured by observing galaxies and other cosmic objects that are separated by massive gulfs of space in the order of millions, billions, and even tens of billions of light-years apart and away from us. And the greater the distance that separates these cosmic objects, the more rapidly they race away from each other.

As a simple analogy for this, imagine drawing three spots on a deflated balloon, two close together and the other further apart. In this analogy, dark energy is the breath blowing into the balloon overcoming gravity which is represented by the tension of the balloon's rubber skin. As the balloon is inflated all three points will move away from each other, but the furthest point will move away more rapidly.

This is like three galaxies, two close together and the other further apart, the latter of which is moving away faster because the space between it and the other galaxies, like the rubber of the balloon, is stretching, and more space means more expansion.

Currently, scientists estimate that galaxies are getting 0.007% further away from each other every million years. American theoretical astrophysicist Ethan Siegel explained in a column for Big Think that in "real terms" for a cosmic object 100 million light-years away astronomers infer it is receding at 1,336 miles per second (2,150 kilometers per second).

Meanwhile, a galaxy 1 billion light-years away is receding 10 times faster at around 13,360 miles per second (21,500 km/s).

The rate of expansion has been measured for the galaxy Galaxy GN-z11, one of the oldest galaxies ever discovered which we see as it was when the universe was just 400 million years old. An estimated 32 billion light-years away, dark energy is expanding the fabric of space at such a rate that GN-z11 is moving away from us at an estimated speed of 426,882 miles per second (687,000 km/s) — over twice the speed of light.

While it's true that nothing can travel through space faster than the speed of light in a vacuum, 186,282 miles per second (299,792 km/s), dark energy demonstrates that the fabric space itself is not bound by such speed limits.

As they separate out, galaxies retain their shape and don't spread apart internally thanks to another 'dark' aspect of the universe  —  dark matter.

Don't be fooled by the similar names, dark energy and dark matter — sometimes grouped together and described as the "dark universe"' — aren't believed to be related aside from a few superficial similarities.

"WHAT IS THE KARDASHEV SCALE??"

[jameswebb-discoveries]

Discovery Alert! In a discovery released on March 4, 2024 - Webb Telescope Just Found the Most Distant Black Hole EVER and Hints at the First Stars!

🪐 The James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) just dropped some mind-blowing discoveries and it's got the whole astronomy community buzzing.

Here's the lowdown:

Supermassive Black Hole from the Early Universe: JWST spotted the farthest black hole ever observed, chilling in the heart of a galaxy called GN-z11. This monster is 2 million times the mass of our sun and existed a mere 430 million years after the Big Bang!

Pristine Gas Hints at First Stars: Another JWST team found a clump of mostly helium gas surrounding GN-z11. This gas is super clean, almost untouched by heavier elements, suggesting it could be leftover material from the Big Bang itself! This discovery hints at the possible presence of the legendary Population III stars, the first generation of stars in the universe, composed mainly of hydrogen and helium.

These findings are HUGE! They offer a glimpse into the infancy of the universe, revealing how black holes formed and hinting at the birth of the very first stars. JWST is truly revolutionizing our understanding of the cosmos! ✨

What do you think? Did these discoveries blow your mind? Share your thoughts in the comments! #JWST #Space #BlackHole #FirstStars #Cosmology #MindBlown

JWST now owns the top 8 spots for most distant objects

In 2022, the most distant object ever known was GN-z11, found by Hubble in 2015/6.

Today, that's only the 9th most distant object, with all top 8 spots being objects discovered by JWST.

[wayti-blog]

"Looking deep into space and time, two teams using the NASA/ESA/CSA James Webb Space Telescope have studied the exceptionally luminous galaxy GN-z11, which existed when our 13.8 billion-year-old universe was only about 430 million years old."

"The formation of the first stars and galaxies marks a fundamental shift in cosmic history, during which the universe evolved from a dark and relatively simple state into the highly structured and complex environment we see today."

The James Webb Space Telescope may have found some of the very 1st stars | Space

Evidence for the first generation of stars to exist in the universe has come to light, thanks to  observations made by the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST). The proof is located in one of the most distant galaxies known.

The galaxy, designated GN-z11, was discovered by the Hubble Space Telescope in 2015 and, prior to the launch of the James Webb Space Telescope, it was considered the most faraway galaxy known. With a redshift of 10.6, it makes more sense to talk about how long ago it existed, rather than how far away it is. That's because we see GN-z11 as it was just 430 million years after the Big Bang due to the time it took for its light to travel to our corner of the cosmos. For comparison, the universe today is 13.8 billion years old.  ...

9 and 10 for Andrew and Kian :eyes:

ohhhh those lads 8)

9. Do you have a specific lyric or quote which you associate with your OC?

uhhh that's actually a really hard question. i don't really have that for most of my ocs...kinda just entre because of the whole blog title thing. i mean yes they have songs and stuff but just ONE big quote? hrmmm

andrew: uhhh i guess his one tattoo? "To GN-z11 and back." it's because GN-z11 is one of the galaxies we've discovered that's farthest away from us. so it's like...to the farthest edges of the study-able universe and back...cuz he's a big space-nerd

kian: actually he has a quote as a tattoo too so THAT LMAO "Mors Tua Vita Mea" the quote is literally "your death, my life" so it's like "your loss is my gain" and it deals with how he killed his "dad" because he was a piece of shit who deserved it and it basically earned Kian the right to finally fully live as a person. and just..yeah a lot of good things happened to him after that moment

10. What's an AU that would be interesting to explore with your OC?

andrew: hmm well you said AU so...that's actually...a thonker. his canons are kinda like..the epitome of my three big interests LMFAO zombie apocalypse, supernatural/horror that's junji ito-esque, and southern gothic + demonic possession shit

oh wait i guess something with a heavy western theme??? because one of his influences is cowboys and wild west and shit like "how the west was weird" "astro-cowboy" was literally his username on...something...was it his truffula flu blog? i forgor. but yes it's because of how astronauts are called space cowboys

kian: HMM...idk i think he's the kinda character that can work in almost any AU or make any of them interesting pirate au is ironically the first thing that popped into my head which is funny because his face-claim is Hook from OUAT LMAOOO

i also think he'd be very interesting in something spooky. because he's such a weird skeptic

Due articoli, uno pubblicato sulla rivista "Nature" e uno accettato per la pubblicazione sulla rivista "Astronomy & Astrophysics", riportano diversi aspetti di uno studio della galassia GN-z11, una delle più distanti conosciute, che ha rivelato la presenza del più distante e antico buco nero trovato finora. Un team di ricercatori guidato da Roberto Maiolino dell’Università di Cambridge ha usato il telescopio spaziale James Webb per esaminare GN-z11 trovando le tracce dell'attività del buco nero supermassiccio al suo centro. Quelle tracce indicano che esso sta divorando la materia circostante a una notevole velocità. Analisi spettroscopiche hanno mostrato la presenza di un grumo di elio nell'alone che circonda GN-z11 e nessun elemento pesante e ciò suggerisce che in quell'alone possano formarsi stelle di prima generazione.

Family is here!

========================

Panel 1: The trio is sitting at a table in a restaurant. Rowi and D are holding some pastries, Sher is (like always) biting on something that looks like a coconut, with a plate with veggies on a table. Rowi says “This is one of the most delicious pastries I’ve tried ever! I think these are made with a very sweet meat from Kibarai”. Sher says “Thif taftef like pineapple anf paffion fruif mixed uf”. D says “This tastes like a load of bread that has been dipped in chili con carne. Very good!”.

Panel 2: D is biting their pastry with a very large bite, and someone says “Does that means I should get the same thingies you got? Do you recommend them, cutie?”.

Panel 3 has Eikomi and Sawi in the scene. Rowi is saying “Hey girls!”. Sawi is hugging Sher and saying “Cherry, missed me!?”. Eikomi says with a smile “Rowi, cutie, cherry, how are you?” while D looks with an expression of light shock over being found eating like a beast.

Panel 4: Rowi and Sawi are both cuddling Sher, that just chirrs in pleasure. Rowi says “Glad to see you here. Where are the others?”. Sawi replies with “They’re parking the ship and registering with the password you sent us”. Meanwhile Eikomi was touching D, who says “um... Eikomi? uhm...”. The avali apologies right after “Oh, I forgot. My apologies. I am just used to hugging people I love. I’ll try to remember asking you beforehand next time”.

A note at the bottom of the page says that Kibarai is a planet located somewhere in the GN-Z11 galaxy.

這兩年全世界天文學家在懷疑宇宙始創大爆炸理論⋯

只因越來越多極巨大嘅宇宙長城（包括剛發現比史隆更大的巨弧和巨環結構），亦有紅移值暴增嘅巨星（包括最新的比GN-z11及HD1更遠紅移值更剛剛破紀錄達到 z = 14 的 Jades-GS-z14-0）

你們的疑惑完全係被困在「三維空間思維模式」⋯

只要用第五維（三維空間+時間+勢）模式去思考，你會發覺所謂唔夠時間形成宇宙長域&哈勃常數再不常至令134億光年以外嘅紅移值暴升問題甚至銀河曲線問題都可以迎刃而解⋯

沒有暗能量，亦沒有五倍於可觀測物質這麼多的暗物質（幾十個%於可觀測物質的黑洞+中微子+非電磁波性粒子還可能有）。

一切一切喺一百年前愛因斯坦嘅廣義相對論完全能夠完美地解釋這一切⋯只係你哋「燈下黑」被困於「三維思維」視而不見啫！
