My god. It's full of stars.

This sparkling #JWST stellar scene is Westerlund 2, a young star cluster only a few million years old and containing some of the hottest, most massive stars known.

Westerlund 2 is situated within the Gum 29 stellar nursery, and is around 20,000 lightyears from home.
A sparling scene is six-pointed stars, with a large cluster at upper centre and a particularly bright example at lower right. The background is wispy and in shades of blue and grey–red, with a bright border of reddy–orange clouds along the left and bottom of the scene.

A story I found about Haiti:

In 1999, a group of Haitians were tired of political disorder and dreamed of a better life in the United States. So they built a small, 23-foot boat by hand using pine trees, scrap wood, and used nails. They called the boat "Believe in God."
Some photos of Haitians running in the streets. There's smoke in the background. It looks like political disorder. A Haitian man stands next to a wall with some barbed wire behind him. The original Magnum caption said the man felt Haiti was a prison and he dreamed of making it to the United States. He wanted to be a rapper. Some men take a break from building a boat. A boat sets sail far off into the distance.

The image is of a comic. Panel one depicts Santa Claus. He says, "Have you been naughty or nice?" Panel two depicts a happy dog. He says, "I am ALWAYS a good boy." Santa responds "Very nice!" Panel three depicts Santa again. He says "...And you?" Panel four depicts an orange cat climbing a Christmas tree, turning his head to look back at Santa.

Another beautiful image from #JWST, this one showing the aftermath of a collision between two dwarf galaxies.

The two bright concentrations of stars are left and right with gas and stars forming a thick filament between the two.

The collision formed new stars—the blue regions throughout the scene.
A dense field of stars to the left and right, with a thick red region of dust and cloud between them. Splotches of blue in the red band are areas of new stars forming. Background galaxies are abundant in the image.

This is part of our universe.

An area of sky about the size of a grain of sand held at arm's length.

The spiked features are stars in the Milky Way.

EVERYTHING ELSE IS A GALAXY.
A JWST deep-field image, replete with bright, familiar spiral galaxies, dimmer, rounder galaxies, and very dim, red–orange galaxies that date to within the first billion years of the Universe's history. Bright, blue, spikey features are stars in our own galaxy.

These are shells of dust coming off a pair of tightly bound stars, newly imaged by #JWST.

There is such beauty in the universe.
A bright, central, curved shape similar to a yin yang symbol sits in the centre of the image, surrounded by fainter, larger, but similarly shaped structures. The background is wispy, against a starfield (with one prominently bright star at lower left).

This is what Jupiter looks like in the infrared.

Its hot, lower atmosphere shining through the cooler cloud layers above.

You show me Jupiter and I'll show you a planet that wants you dead.
A set of orangey–yellow bands interrupted by darker bands, crossing the face of Jupiter in the infrared. The background is black.

A rare yellow version of the ‘Jigsaw Decisions’ artwork!
Ok so… there is an 8x8 piece jigsaw puzzle, it’s all yellow, and there’s some text written on it. There’s two pieces of the puzzle missing, so that whatever is written is missing two letters. Those missing letters will be a dash in the following transcription: The jigsaw slogan reads: I’m no_ gonna do that thing I’ve got to do _hen I can have fun. Below this jigsaw are the two missing pieces, one a W and the other a T. This means the slogan, depending on where you put the missing pieces can read one of two ways: Either: I’m now going to do that thing I’ve got to do then I can have fun. Or… I’m not going to do that thing I’ve got to do when I can have fun.

Seeing some beautiful photos of aurorae tonight, so here's a reminder that other planets get them, too!

This is Saturn, with aurorae visible at both poles in this UV image from Hubble's Space Telescope Imaging Spectrograph, taken in October 1997 when the planet was 1.3 billion km away.
A bland view of Saturn, but with bright orange glows at both poles; these are the planet's aurorae seen in UV light.

Nothing to see here.

Just two gigantic eyes in deep space, staring.

Unblinking.
Two bright nodes of light in this scene resemble giant eyes, staring Earthward. They are surrounded by fainter wisps of stars, set against a backdrop black as night.

Another STUNNING image from JWST, this time of the Red Spider Nebula—the vast, wispy, gaseous remains of a now-dead star, the white dwarf core still glowing in the centre.
A series of wispy, blue strands emanate from the centre of the image, which is glowing orangey–red with a little pink. The background is FESTOONED with stars, all set against a black backdrop.

Daylight Saving Explained:
So we’ve got a big 6-panel comic here! Let’s dig in. The comic is titled ‘How to Tell if You Lost or Gained an Hour’ In the first drawing, we have the words “This is the Hour Hand” and below it is an anthropomorphic hour hand waving and saying ‘sup losers’ Next panel says “If the clocks go forward, it eats up that hour” and now our Hour character is chasing after an hour-sized wedge of a clock, screaming ‘Come Here!” while the hour goes, “AHH!” Next panel goes “But if clocks go back, it also eats that hour…” and now the hour hand is eating another house screaming ‘AAH HA HA’ while that hour runs away saying ‘Not again!’ Next panel points out that ‘In short, the hour hand is a real dick’ and theres a drawing of the hour hand smoking a cig, giving the finger and saying ‘Fuck You’ - Panel five continues the narration with “...and nobody knows what happened to the hour” and below this, there’s a policeman with a sniffer dog looking for a shallow grave in the woods. Our last panel begins “...But someone will try and explain it to you…” Below this we have one of those annoying people saying “So in Spring, the clocks spring…” but their words mean nothing because they’re talking to a grieving anthropomorphic clock, who’s missing that hour, shown by a missing wedge in their face and they’re saying “That will not bring my baby back!” Anyway, I’m really sorry if you were actually hoping to find out if we gained or lost an hour here.
