Webb Offers Never-Before-Seen Details of Early Universe – James Webb Space Telescope
Editor's Note : This post highlights data from Webb science in progress, which has not yet been through the peer-review process.
NASA's James Webb Space Telescope was specially designed to detect the faint infrared light from very distant galaxies and give astronomers a glimpse at the early universe. The nature of galaxies during this early period of our universe is not well known nor understood.

NASA Intern Found Hope in the Moon
By Elizabeth Landau, NASA October 26, 2022 The Moon as seen from the International Space Station. This image was taken by ESA astronaut Paolo Nespoli during his second mission to 'MagISStra' on March 20, 2011. Paolo commented on the image: "Supermoon was spectacular from here!
Webb , the largest space science telescope ever , which launched in December 2021, played a big role in Ferreira's internship at NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center in Greenbelt, Maryland.
Spectacular New Images And Insights Into The Origin Of Saturn's Rings | IFLScience
The Cassini spacecraft may have burned up in Saturn's atmosphere years ago, but its data is still being analyzed. Researchers have now completed a catalog of data from 41 solar occultations of Saturn's rings (when the rings are in front of the Sun).
The size of the particles that make up the rings, the density of the rings, and the features within these spectacular structures can be estimated through these observations. The crucial measurement is called optical depth.
Uranus moons beckon to plans for a NASA orbiter mission | Space
Uranus is a strange world, knocked on its side and with a lopsided magnetic field. Its moons may be even stranger.
Earlier this year, the U.S. National Academies of Sciences, Engineering and Medicine recommended that the next flagship mission in planetary science — one costing perhaps $4 billion — should go to Uranus , with launch targeting the 2030s.
The space fan's guide to the US midterm elections 2022 | Space
As the Federation of Scientists points out in a 2022 fact sheet (opens in new tab) , most congressional legislation about NASA centers on the availability of funding for the agency's endeavors.
One big-ticket NASA project, the Artemis moon program, has drawn considerable interest from both Congress and the general public recently, given that it's working to put boots on the lunar surface just a few years from now.
Call off the return to the moon at our peril | New Scientist
Some letters have suggested that space exploration of various types shouldn’t go ahead for financial or environmental reasons.
There may be consequences to reducing NASA’s remit that would make these aims futile. For one, the threat of unemployment for scientists and engineers.
