Science: NASA Teases First Webb Space Telescope Images

each thing in this picture is a different distance from the observer. One point may be 20 light years from you, another may be 2000. From where you're looking though, they're next to each other. This is that x 1000.

Also mind blowing is that if you held your arm out, the space that this covers in the sky would be about the size of a crumb of weed shake that you would blow off the table when you finished rolling. A piece of sand.

This shit is like this in every direction, times a billion times a billion. Everywhere you look.

Shit crazy.

This will really blow your shit back, watch to the end.


man a thousand

Yes they are stars. Anything that has that lil 6 pointed array around it is a singular light source, i.e., a star.

Ok now, are those stars alone or are they a part of another galaxy

what gravitational pull has them in their place if they are alone

I was going to say this but there is relative galaxy "clustering" in the universe that I've observed discussions regarding since these Webb photos started being revealed. I was going to give the analogy of a photographer snapping pictures and standing on one extreme end of a group of subjects who are themselves standing in a perfect line. From the right vantage point it might appear the subjects are standing within arms reach of each other but are in reality many tens of feet apart, and the further the distance of the subjects from the photographer, the greater the relative distortion of perception.

They're very likely in our galaxy, although rogue stars are a thing albeit rare. If they're milky way stars, they are orbiting the galactic center just like us.
 
Can someone explain why these deep universe pics have all the galaxies clumped up like that? I know the distance between them is light years but why do all deep space pics show galaxies all in one shot like they just floating out there together?!??? Is that just one random point? So if you point the camera in any “direction” of deep space you’ll see different galaxies clumped up all over the universe?!?

They look clumped up like that because we are looking at them at such a huge distance.

And yeah if you look at any chunk of sky you'll see galaxies clumped up like that....provided you have a telescope capable of that

You're correct Sammyjax. The stars in that photo are all within our galaxy. In fact, all the stars we see in the night sky are within the Milky Way. The other cool thing is the smearing of the galaxies due to the gravitational lensing. The mass of galaxies and dark matter bends spacetime so greatly that light from galaxies behind them is distorted.

Yeah you wouldn't be able to pick out a single star in another galaxy from these photos. I just didn't say all because a rogue star in near intergalactic space is TECHNICALLY a possibility and I don't usually apply absolutes to space science topics. But yeah, 99.999% likely it's not gonna be that.

I'm very aware of lensing and Einstein would be like I told y'all niggas.

Oh, I had no doubt you knew about lensing. I only added that description for those who may see the images and think they're somehow defective. Between these images and those of Sagittarius A*, it truly has been an amazing few years in cosmology.

It's an ill ass first crop of pics too. I'm honestly more interested in the science haul than the images, although I'm still incredibly interested in the images.

The spectrometry from all these damn exoplanets we've identified with Kepler Spitzer and hubble should be about to get very fucking interesting.

Zod is at the center of ours, that’s why it’s called the Milky Way, have you seen milk come out a bitch temple, it’s like matter thrustin out a black hole

gravitational grace nigga, aye @Dark19 we gotta start incorporatin intergalactic grace at zunday service

bless his name

bless his name nigga

Damn you dumb as fuck. Ole remedial as nigga with his eyes close together faggot

i dont think the pics from the webb tele is in our galaxy bro.thats light years away and not of our galaxy..if thats what you and sammy was talking about......
 
Have throughly enjoyed marveling at the images WEBB has sent back so far. Shit is AMAZING.

Biden had to conference with other world leaders before the release to warn them of the potential impact to religious beliefs I’ve heard.

What images AREN’T they showing us??:hmm:

The individual stars(bright sources with the four points) are within our galaxy, unless they're rogue stars between galaxies. But outside of that everything else is either an individual galaxy or a galaxy cluster. Our closest star beside the Sun is about 2 light years away and the Milky Way is about 100,000 light years in diameter, which means all the stars we see in the night sky are many light years away.

It never ceases to amaze me that each of those galaxies that we're seeing in their entirety could be many hundreds of thousands of light years across and contain billions to trillions of stars and planets.

That's why I told him think about it

If they weren't in our galaxy they'd have to be in the others, which are all fuzzy smudges of a billion stars together lol
