INBOX ASTRONOMY Galaxies Actively Forming in Early Universe Caught Feeding on Cold Gas Release date: Thursday, May 23, 2024 2:00:00 PM Eastern Daylight Time Only Webb can detect and investigate these galaxies, which were forming within dense, opaque gas when the universe was only a few hundred million years old. A team in Denmark examining archival data from the James Webb Space Telescope recently found a trio of distant galaxies that are in the process of gathering gas when the ...Continue Reading

INBOX ASTRONOMY NASA's Webb Cracks Case of Inflated Exoplanet Release date: Monday, May 20, 2024 11:00:00 AM Eastern Daylight Time A surprising deficiency of methane suggests that tidal heating has puffed up the atmosphere of the warm gas giant WASP-107 b. Why is the warm gas-giant exoplanet WASP-107 b so, so puffy? With a moderate temperature and an ultra-low density on par with a microwaved marshmallow, it seems to defy standard theories of planet formation and evolution. Two ...Continue Reading
