A rather chilly sunrise last week.
#Stunday #ColorADay #OrangeSun #Photography #EastCoastKin
The sun is starting to shine through breaks in the low clouds over the lake. The sky is turning from dark orange at the horizon, to light orange, to pale blue at the top. The lake water is very dark until the sun's rays reflect off the water close to the shore.

Researchers using the JWST have confirmed the first supersonic Runaway Supermassive Black Hole (~7.8 bly away) ejected by and racing away from its host galaxy at 3.43 million km/h, leaving behind a 200,000-light-year-long "contrail" of newborn stars.

This image of MACS 0416 from #NASAWebb and Hubble shows two galaxy clusters in the process of combining. Their mass magnifies the light from more distant background galaxies, helping astronomers identify distant supernovas and even individual stars: bit.ly/4qSNy5T 🔭
A field of galaxies on the black background of space. In the middle, stretching from left to right, is a collection of dozens of yellowish spiral and elliptical galaxies that form a foreground galaxy cluster. Among them are distorted linear features, which mostly appear to follow invisible concentric circles curving around the center.
