NASA’s JWST has confirmed it’s first exoplanet!

Just 41 light-years away, in the constellation Octans, exoplanet named LHS 475 b is a rocky planet, almost exactly the size of Earth (99% it’s diameter).

Think we're the only planet with life? 350mp quality. Remember to download to your phone and zoom in. Gets even more beautiful. Yes this is a nebula, yes I know there’s no life in a nebula. Of course these are not real photos. Duh!

The Deep Webb

A YTP of NASA's 2022 live presentation showcasing the first images taken from the James Webb Space Telescope.

This monumental feat of human discovery was presented to the world in the form of a scuffed livestream where technical errors abound and production repeatedly failed to think on their feet to remedy issues as they came up. Peppered with some charmingly awkward/out-of-touch performances by the various presenters, most of which are astronomers and engineers whom I have the deepest respect for despite it all.

I watched this event as it was broadcast and immediately knew it would make for an excellent YTP source. I was so very correct, and my biggest regret was sitting on it for two years rather than working with it immediately.

Volcanoes on Jupiter's moon Io keep erupting. To investigate, NASA's robotic Juno spacecraft has begun a series of visits to this very strange moon. Io is about the size of Earth's moon, but because of gravitational flexing by Jupiter and other moons, Io's interior gets heated and its surface has become covered with volcanoes. The featured image is from last week's flyby, passing within 12,000 kilometers above the dangerously active world. The surface of Io is covered with sulfur and frozen sulfur dioxide, making it appear yellow, orange and brown. As hoped, Juno flew by just as a volcano was erupting -- with its faint plume visible near the top of the featured image.

Saturn’s moon Enceladus ejects so much water that it has formed a ring or torus that supplies the entire Saturnian system, according to a discovery by the James Webb Space Telescope. Discover more about our solar system with Webb: https://webbtelescope.pub/47v4JRE
