Based on NIRCam observations, a research group reported the discovery of a new infrared transient in SMACS-0723 field.
The data implies a very blue colour and it might be a distant Type Ia supernova.
Follow-up observations are encouraged.

Speaking of released raw JWST images, the ones of Antennae Galaxies were released earlier today.

2M1134-2103: a distant quasar being lensed 4 times by a foreground object, making in appear multiple times from our perspective.
Observed by JWST/MIRI a year ago.

Does extraterrestrial life exist on planet K2-a8b?

JWST detected carbon dioxide and methane in its atmosphere.

K2-18b is potentially habitable, covered by an ocean and about 2.6 times the size of Earth. It is located 120 light-years from our planet.

From this moment on you will always be able to tell the difference between a Hubble image and a JWST image:

Hubble stars have four spikes in a cross. JWST stars have six in a snowflake. Thank you for your time.

JWST caught a question mark looking galaxy.

We live in a simulation, change my mind

How small is the field in that amazing image?

We heard “like a grain of sand, at arms length” ….

Here’s what that looks like!

It’s tiny when compared to even some nearby galaxies. Imagine all the sky covered in galaxies!

From Lucie Rowland: One of JWST’s aims is to find the very first stars in the Universe – but is it up to the task? 🔭✨️

Це K2-18b, потенційно придатна для життя планета, покрита океанами і приблизно в 2,6 рази більша за Землю. JWST щойно виявив у своїй атмосфері вуглекислий газ і метан, які можуть вироблятися лише живими істотами.

Could have spent my afternoon working. Actually spent my afternoon figuring out how to skin my office door with the image of the Carina Nebula like a totally responsible astronomer.

ΕΦΥΓΑ !!!!

This is K2-18b, a potentially habitable planet covered with oceans and about 2.6 times the size of Earth.
JWST has just detected carbon dioxide and methane in its atmosphere which can only be produced by living beings.

The has detected the farthest black hole collision ever observed, occurring when the Universe was just 740 million years old. This event involves the merger of two galaxies and their central supermassive black holes in a system known as ZS7. 1/
