The Cosmic Gems is one of the most highly magnified objects in space, thanks to a phenomenon called gravitational lensing. (Image credit: ESA/Webb, NASA & CSA, L. Bradley (STScI), A. Adamo (Stockholm University) and the Cosmic Spring collaboration) Astronomers using the James Webb Space Telescope have observed five extremely dense proto-globular clusters along a hair-thin …
Why Some Physicists Think We Are Living Inside A Black Hole | iflscience.com
According to the theory, we are encoded at the edge of a black hole in a much larger universe. Image credit: Vadim Sadovski/Shutterstock.com Source: Why Some Physicists Think We Are Living Inside A Black Hole Call me crazy, but I've pondered this some time ago already. I've been having this inexpliccable hunch that the black …

We Finally Know What Turned The Lights on at The Dawn of Time | ScienceAlert
Source: We Finally Know What Turned The Lights on at The Dawn of Time I'd say JWST has already justified its cost and build-time, no? Looks as if preexisting theories about ionization are at least in part corroborated by these findings.
The surprising origins of wave-particle duality
Source: The surprising origins of wave-particle duality Who would've thought? I hadn't been aware that the discovery of the wave-particle duality of photons, electrons and even larger structures of particles originated in the 17th century from the work of Christiaan Huygens. So the non-deterministic nature of our cosmos and reality are "set in stone" based …

The expansion of the universe could be a mirage | Live Science
Astronomers use the light from distant stars, such as the Helix Nebula seen here, to measure the apparent expansion of the universe. New resaerch suggests there may be more to the pictue that we're not seeing.

Apple in a Box, A Trip to Infinity (2022) | Netflix
A Trip to Infinity, awesome visualization from a chapter in it demonstrating the possibility of the universe playing out each number of infinite possibilities, here with the example of an apple in a tightly sealed box (closed system). Spoiler: That box... could be our universe. 😮
Largest-ever map of 56,000 galaxies is demystifying the universe | Space
New results from a mapping of the observable universe yields a value of 47 miles per second per megaparsec for the expansion rate at which galaxies recede from each other and at which the universe expands.
