Watch the mind-blowing moment during SpaceX Test Flight 5 when Mechazilla successfully catches the Super Heavy Booster! From launch to landing, this marks a major breakthrough in reusable rocket technology. Don't miss this historic catch!
Today marks the one-year anniversary of a mind-blowing discovery made by the James Webb Space Telescope, and brace yourselves, it's like something straight out of a sci-fi flick! đźŚ
🔠Last year, on November 17, 2022, the Webb telescope, with its super cosmic detective skills, unveiled the outer reaches of the colossal galaxy cluster Abell 2744, dropping a jaw-dropping bombshell – the revelation of two of the most distant galaxies ever spotted!
📸 Feast your eyes on the awe-inspiring image captured by NASA, ESA, CSA, and the brilliant mind of Tommaso Treu (UCLA), with a touch of magic in image processing by Zolt G. Levay (STScI). 🌌✨
🌟 These two cosmic wonders were found between 350 and 450 million years after the big bang. Imagine, just a blink in the vast timeline of our universe! 🕰️ Astronomers are scratching their heads because these galaxies, though smaller than our Milky Way, are shining brighter than your favorite star. 💫✨ They're like the rockstars of the early galaxy scene, converting gas into stars at a mind-boggling rate!
🔍 Webb's gaze has revealed a hidden universe, where the first galaxies are throwing a celestial party, quite different from the mature galaxies we're used to. 🎉💫 It seems the stellar birth began only 100 million years after the big bang, opening our eyes to a cosmic cradle of creation.
In just four days of processing, Webb managed to snatch a glimpse of these elusive early galaxies, previously unseen by any other telescope. 🚀 Imagine what wonders await as we delve deeper into the cosmos!
🔍 Stay tuned for the unfolding cosmic drama as Webb continues to unravel the mysteries of our universe! 🚀đź”✨ #WebbTelescope #GalacticRevelations #CosmicExploration #LostInSpace #SpaceWonders

Read what scientists thinks will most likely happen - James Webb Discovery - If betelgeuse goes supernova will it affect earth ?
We hope you like your planetary systems extra spicy. 🔥
A new system of seven sizzling planets has been discovered using data from our retired Kepler space telescope.
Named Kepler-385, it’s part of a new catalog of planet candidates and multi-planet systems discovered using Kepler.
The discovery helps illustrate that multi-planetary systems have more circular orbits around the host star than systems with only one or two planets.
Our Kepler mission is responsible for the discovery of the most known exoplanets to date. The space telescope’s observations ended in 2018, but its data continues to paint a more detailed picture of our galaxy today.
All seven planets are between the size of Earth and Neptune.
Its star is 10% larger and 5% hotter than our Sun.
This system is one of over 700 that Kepler’s data has revealed.
The planets’ orbits have been represented in sound.
Now that you’ve heard a little about this planetary system, get acquainted with more exoplanets and why we want to explore them.

Behold the captivating infrared image of the galaxy cluster El Gordo ("the Fat One") captured by Webb, showcasing an array of hundreds of galaxies with unprecedented clarity. Acting as a gravitational lens, El Gordo skillfully bends and amplifies the light from far-off background galaxies, revealing celestial wonders never seen before in such exquisite detail. Among the most prominent features are the lensed background galaxies, The Thin One (highlighted in box A) and The Fishhook (a mesmerizing red swoosh highlighted in box B). The insets on the right offer a closer look at these fascinating objects. Image credits: NASA, ESA, CSA. Full article here
