Underreported: Elon just picked the head of NASA—a massive conflict-of-interest that will damage a government entity that he partners with, depends on, and in some cases competes with. The nominated NASA director is a high-school dropout billionaire who is pals with Musk. He has no business at NASA.

Leading Aaron Rodgers deeper and deeper into my family’s catacombs so he can try out this incredible ritualistic sensory deprivation experience, it’s unreal, it truly unlocks your inner self, it’s just a little bit farther down the catacombs

Was actually called a conspiracy theorist a couple weeks ago for saying Lara Trump might well replace Rubio so that she can report back to Trump from inside a Senate Republican Conference he worries is not yet a wholly owned subsidiary of his id. Ah, we were so young and naive then! Or, some were.

NGC 6302: The "Butterfly Nebula" Credit:NASA

Hubble was recently retrained on NGC 6302, known as the "Butterfly Nebula," to observe it across a more complete spectrum of light, from near-ultraviolet to near-infrared, helping researchers better understand the mechanics at work in its technicolor "wings" of gas. The observations highlight a new pattern of near-infrared emission from singly ionized iron, which traces an S shape from lower left to upper right. This iron emission likely traces the central star system’s most recent ejections of gas, which are moving at much faster speeds than the previously expelled mass.

The star or stars at its center are responsible for the nebula's appearance. In their death throes, they have cast off layers of gas periodically over the past couple thousand years. The "wings" of NGC 6302 are regions of gas heated to more than 36,000 degrees Fahrenheit that are tearing across space at more than 600,000 miles an hour.

NGC 6302 lies between 2,500 and 3,800 light-years away in the constellation Scorpius.

Image of a star that exploded 320 years ago: Cassiopeia A (Infrared + X ray). This image was presented on AAS Nova today as JWST revealed new features in it. 🔭 🧪

This image of the famous supernova remnant Cassiopeia A combines X-ray, optical, and infrared observations. The new infrared data from JWST revealed fascinating structures.
