NASA's James Webb Space Telescope has just dropped a major cosmic bombshell! ๐๐ญ
๐ช๐ฎ You know the age-old question - How are planets born? Well, scientists have long suspected that it all starts with ice-covered pebbles drifting closer to newborn stars. The theory goes like this: these pebbles journey from the chilly, outer regions of the stellar disk and, as they move into warmer territory, they unleash loads of cold water vapor, delivering both water and solid materials crucial for planet formation.
๐ โจ BUT, here's the mind-blowing part! The James Webb Space Telescope has captured this remarkable process in action! It has unveiled the missing link between water vapor in the inner disk and the migration of these icy pebbles from the outer disk. ๐ฐ๏ธ๐ช
๐๐ This groundbreaking discovery opens the door to a whole new realm of possibilities in our quest to understand how rocky planets come to life! ๐๐

James Webb Space Telescope Weekly Schedule Mar 13, 2023 to Mar 20, 2023 just released. Here are some of the amazing objects Webb is targeting this week - .
Prepare to be captivated by the breathtaking beauty of space! NASA's James Webb Space Telescope has gifted us with a mesmerizing glimpse into the birth of celestial bodies, courtesy of Herbig-Haro 211 (HH 211). This cosmic wonder resembles the early days of our own Sun and offers invaluable insights into star formation.
๐ Herbig-Haro objects are cosmic masterpieces born when stellar winds and gas jets from newborn stars collide with nearby interstellar matter at astonishing speeds. In Webb's high-resolution, near-infrared image, HH 211 shines with exquisite detail, showcasing a series of dazzling bow shocks to the southeast and northwest. But that's not allโthis image unveils a slender bipolar jet that powers these shocks in unprecedented detail.
๐ซ What makes this image even more fascinating is the dance of molecules within this turbulent environment. Molecular hydrogen, carbon monoxide, silicon monoxide, and more become electrified, emitting infrared light that Webb artfully captures. This light provides a map of the intricate structure of the celestial outflows.
๐ธ Credits go to ESA/Webb, NASA, CSA, and T. Ray from the Dublin Institute for Advanced Studies for this celestial masterpiece.
