INBOX ASTRONOMY NASA's Webb Reveals New Features in Heart of Milky Way Release date: Monday, November 20, 2023 10:00:00 AM Eastern Standard Time The play of darkness and light in our galaxy’s crowded core is put on display like never before. A bright field of gas sweeps around the edge of a dark, dense cloud where young stars are bursting out to take their place in the universe. They join an estimated 500,000 other stars in the scene, of various ages, sizes, and colors. It’s the ...Continue Reading

INBOX ASTRONOMY NASA's Hubble Measures the Size of the Nearest Transiting Earth-Sized Planet Release date: Thursday, November 16, 2023 10:00:00 AM Eastern Standard Time Rocky World Is Too Hot for Life as We Know It Lots of planets around neighboring stars are not seen directly. Instead, they are found when they temporarily pass in front of their parent star, an event called a transit. During the transit they block out a little bit of light from the star, essentially casting a sh ...Continue Reading
