New JWST image of protostar HH 30, with legend. 🔭 🧪

A close-in image of protoplanetary disc HH 30. Parts of the image are labelled “Jet” (above and below the disc), “Conical Outflow”, “Possible Spiral”, “Dark Lane”, “Disk”, and “Tail”. A scale marker in the bottom-left is labelled “300 au”; this is a little wider than the disc itself, but less wide than the conical outflows above and below the disc

While Roman engineers and architects were building cities, termites in Brazil excavated a massive network of galleries, creating millions of mounds that persisted until today and can be seen from space phys.org/news/2018-11... … A good reminder of the power and scale of collective intelligence.

Eye in the sky. You're looking at the Ring Nebula, the remnant of a star that had the mass of 3 suns and exploded ~4,000 years ago. 🔭 🧪

This image of the Ring Nebula appears as a distorted doughnut. The nebula’s inner cavity hosts shades of blue and green, while the detailed ring transitions through shades of orange in the inner regions and pink in the outer region. The ring’s inner region has distinct filament elements.

The stars in NGC 602 have fewer heavier elements compared to the Sun and most of the rest of the galaxy. Instead, the conditions within NGC 602 mimic those for stars found billions of years ago when the universe was much younger. chandra.harvard.edu/photo/2024/n... 🔭 🧪

This stunning composite image from the James Webb and Chandra telescopes reveals the intricate details of NGC 602, a young star cluster nestled within the Small Magellanic Cloud. Webb's infrared observations pierce through dust to reveal nascent stars and intricate dust structures, while Chandra's X-ray data highlights the hot gas sculpted by powerful stellar winds and supernova explosions from the cluster's massive stars. The resulting image showcases a vibrant tapestry of colors, with swirling patterns of red, green, and blue illuminating the interplay between star formation and the surrounding interstellar medium, offering valuable insights into the evolution of star clusters and their impact on galactic environments.

No access to academic papers and books? Here's a guide for you! Isabella Bruno lays out very clear paths.

Flow chart
Starts at top:

I need a paper!

Does it have a DOI? or Is it a book?

I don’t know
Find out!
Search for the title on
Google and see if you
can find a DOI on the
page where it was
published

OA.mg
They have all Open Access papers
and PDFs for many other papers too
www.oa.mg

Yes. (It's a book.)

LibGen
Check Library Genesis
(www. libgen. tw),
they have millions of books
They didn’t have it
