⭐️ Un equipo en el que participa José María Diego, investigador del IFCA, detectó hace unos meses Eärendel: la estrella más lejana jamás observada. Ahora las imágenes del #JWST ofrecen nueva información... ¿qué nos depararán las próximas observaciones? 🪢 ifca.unican.es/es-es/news/Pag…

#JWST images reveal that Earendel, the most distant star we've ever discovered, is HOT. And it might even have a companion! Brian Welch, who discovered Earendel, led the new analysis of the star: arxiv.org/abs/2208.09007.

El IAA-CSIC participó hace unos meses en el descubrimiento de Earendel, la estrella más distante detectada (shorturl.at/dEK12). Ahora, #JWST ha confirmado la detección y sugiere que pueda tratarse de un sistema doble. Fantástico!

Earendel resides in a galaxy known as the Sunrise Arc, which is lensed and magnified by the galaxy cluster WHL0137-08. You can view the full-color, high-resolution #JWST images and a lot more at our website: cosmic-spring.github.io/earendel.html

Meanwhile, @HubbleTelescope continues to monitor Earendel, which hasn't twinkled once even though we might expect such a massive, hot star to vary in brightness. A pair of bright stars could help average out this intrinsic variability.

Do you remember the alignment image #JWST took of a star to ensure everything was focused as part of its calibrations? Were you also SO FREAKING AWED by how many galaxies you could see IN THE BACKGROUND of the image?! Look at the science data we have! There are SO MANY GALAXIES!

I have been waiting so long to share this, and it is finally time! Do you want to see THE BIGGEST IMAGE #JWST has taken of galaxies so far?! Our color mosaic image from @ceers_jwst is ready, and there are SO MANY GALAXIES in it! Download it here & ZOOM IN ceers.github.io/ceers-first-im…

@coreyspowell @cosmos4u We'll share the findings from our team when the processing and measurements are completed! Stay tuned for some pretty cool science!

The @NASAWebb space telescope just took its first look at Earendel, the most distant and ancient star known -- so far. Its light has taken 12.9 billion years to reach us. HT @CosmicSprngJWST for posting the images, part of JWST observing program 2282.

We could see this galaxy with #Hubble (blue image labels), but we needed the wavelength coverage of #JWST (red image labels) to discover all of these compact star clusters around it!

Meet the 'Sparkler' Galaxy! These 'sparkles' in and around it are some of the first globular clusters found in distant galaxies and are the inspiration for our Cosmic Spring name: tiny buds of star formation in the early universe! Check out the paper here: arxiv.org/abs/2208.02233
