La parte sinistra di questa immagine mostra molte galassie luminose di varie forme e colori su uno sfondo nero. Un piccolo riquadro nella parte superiore dell'immagine evidenzia un piccolo gruppo di galassie. Questo riquadro è stato spostato sul lato destro, mostrando la stessa area ingrandita. Questa regione mostra una piccola galassia rossa circolare al centro, indicata come “CANUCS-LRD-z8.6”. Crediti: ESA/Webb, NASA & CSA, G. Rihtaršič (Università di Lubiana, FMF), R.

Black hole dynamical mass measurements are notoriously tricky with lots of systematics to consider from instrument + methods, so it will be interesting to see if the result holds up. Still, lots of good stuff in the paper and of course, #NIRSpec (contributed by @esa.int!) & #JWST are awesome 🌈✨🔭

Habitable or not? Astronomers probe exoplanet TRAPPIST-1 d Could Earth-sized exoplanets be habitable? Based on observations with the James Webb Space Telescope, UdeM graduate Caroline Piaulet-Ghorayeb and her team suggest it’s still too soon to say.

“The planet could have an extremely thin atmosphere, like Mars, making it very hard to detect. It might also be shrouded in thick, high-altitude clouds, like Venus... Or it might simply have no atmosphere at all.”
