Just read an article that was doubly mind blowing ... the farthest star that was seen in recent pictures is like 13.1 billion light years away but because of the expansion of the universe, it is now actually ~ 30 billion light years away ... how the hell can they figure that out? But I guess when you're talking about 20-30 billion light years, what's like +/- a few billion light years off?

The telescope captured this image of a galaxy which has the shape of a cartwheel.

Beautiful!

Every time I see pictures from the JWT, it absolutely blows my mind. All those blue dots in the galaxy are potential stars. And the galaxy is more than 100,000 light years across! And look at all the galaxies in the background... how can we be alone in this universe?

:fulloffuck:

cuz we are stupid and childish and cant even stop fighting amongst ourselves to realize just how insignificant we all are.

Aliens be like :heckno::heckno: :fuuuuu: humanity

Probably watching our planet like we watch rightwing TV.

Or if they stopped by a few million years ago, saw dinosaurs, and noped the fuck out of here and haven't been back since haha

A beautiful picture of Jupiter.

The telescope captures the auroras that are at high altitude above the northern and southern poles of Jupiter.

A storm bigger then earth :eek5r:

It's actually red, and it's a storm that's been going on for at least 350 years - the entirety of humanity's observation of Jupiter with telescopes.
