JWST reveals Pismis 24 in the Lobster Galaxy: Powerful stellar winds and UV radiation from massive young stars sculpt gas and dust, birthing new stars in a cosmic nursery. Colors reveal gas density and starlight.
Scientists are puzzled by the lack of water in planet-forming disks in NGC 6357. JWST and upgraded observatories are crucial to understanding the role of carbon dioxide and UV radiation in Earth-like world formation.
JWST's COSMOS-Web map, spanning cosmic time, reveals 800,000 galaxies, including unexpectedly numerous galaxies and supermassive black holes, challenging cosmological models and boosting deep space exploration.
JWST observations reveal dust obscured a black hole (LID-568), leading to overestimation of its mass and accretion rate. Recalculation using infrared light provides a more accurate mass estimation.
For instance, a surface covered in the black rock basalt would hint at the presence of volcanoes, like on many planets in our solar system.
