Haunting Portrait: NASA’s Webb Reveals Dust, Structure in Pillars of Creation - From NASA Marshall Space Flight Center - https://flic.kr/p/2nWpPiz
This is not an ethereal landscape of time-forgotten tombs. Nor are these soot-tinged fingers reaching out. These pillars, flush with gas and dust, enshroud stars that are slowly forming over many millennia. NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope has snapped this eerie, extremely dusty view of the Pillars of Creation in mid-infrared light – showing us a new view of a familiar landscape. Why does mid-infrared light set such a somber, chilling mood in Webb’s Mid-Infrared Instrument (MIRI) image? Interstellar dust cloaks the scene. And while mid-infrared light specializes in detailing where dust is, the stars aren’t bright enough at these wavelengths to appear. Instead, these looming, leaden-hued pillars of gas and dust gleam at their edges, hinting at the activity within. Thousands and thousands of stars have formed in this region. This is made plain when examining Webb’s recent Near-Infrared Camera (NIRCam) image. In MIRI’s view, the majority of the stars appear missing. Why? Many newly formed stars are no longer surrounded by enough dust to be detected in mid-infrared light. Instead, MIRI observes young stars that have not yet cast off their dusty “cloaks.” These are the crimson orbs toward the fringes of the pillars. In contrast, the blue stars that dot the scene are aging, which means they have shed most of their layers of gas and dust. Mid-infrared light excels at observing gas and dust in extreme detail. This is also unmistakable throughout the background. The densest are...

Ich würd urgern Meta einfach nur noch von einer Meta-Ebene betrachten, bin aber noch zu bequem dazu. Zu viele nerdy FilmIndieSpielArt- etc. Gruppen mit zu vielen guten Inhalten. That being said, irgendwie ist Jay Graber gerade meine Heldin. Nicht nur wegen des schönen Vornamens. #mundussinecaearibus

Lang ist es her, wir hatten im Podcast einiges zu plaudern. @modriac.bsky.social Es ging um Magiesysteme, die Moskauer U-Bahn, #SquidGame, #Cozygames, nicht so cozy Games und #Dune. Leider vergas ich, auf GRR Martin zu schimpfen, was mir im Nachhinein leid tut. www.kinofilme.com/eskapoden-11...
Eskapoden #119: Escatchupode - Kinofilme.com
Wir sind zurück und weil wir uns so lang nicht gehört haben, wird es Zeit für ein Catch Up – oder sollten wir sagen eine Escatchupode? Unter anderem geht es um Brandon Sanderson, Dmitri Gluchowski, Du...
