James Webb Space Telescope, Leo P and galaxies

James Webb Space Telescope finds our Milky Way galaxy's supermassive black hole blowing bubbles (image, video)
Using the James Webb Space Telescope, astronomers have taken a detailed look at the supermassive black hole at the heart of the Milky Way, Sgr A*, finding it endlessly blowing bubbles.
James Webb telescope captures stunning image in space: Meet Leo P, a special dwarf galaxy
Scientists didn't expect that stars would be able to still form in the dwarf galaxy known as Leo P, which the James Webb Telescope recently imaged.
Space photo of the week: James Webb telescope shocks scientists with image of ancient galaxy roaring back to life

Webb telescope observes violence around Milky Way's central black hole
NASA's James Webb Space Telescope is providing the best look yet at the chaotic events unfolding around the supermassive black hole at the center of our Milky Way galaxy, observing a steady flickering of light punctuated by occasional bright flares as material is drawn inward by its enormous gravitational pull.
Webb Telescope Reveals Black Hole's Flickering Heart
The James Webb Space Telescope offers unprecedented observations of the supermassive black hole at the Milky Way's center. Its findings, showcasing steady flickering and bright flares from the surrounding accretion disk,
The Milky Way’s Black Hole Is Producing a Brilliant Light Show
NASA's flagship space telescope captured flares from the disk of superheated material around the black hole, revealing the dynamic—and explosive—physics at our galaxy's core.
Milky Way’s central black hole is generating massive bursts of energy
At the center of the Milky Way, a supermassive black hole called Sagittarius A* is never at rest. Using NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope (JWST), researchers have captured the most detailed and longest observation yet of this turbulent cosmic entity.
Flickers and flares: Milky Way's central black hole constantly bubbles with light
Astrophysicists have observed our central supermassive black hole. They found the accretion disk is constantly emitting flares without periods of rest. Shorter, faint flares and longer, bright flares appear to be generated by separate processes.
Black hole at center of Milky Way’s puts on daily ‘fireworks show’
New observations using NASA's James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) reveal a "unique" ongoing, rapid-fire light show. The post Black hole at center of Milky Way’s puts on daily ‘fireworks show’ appeared first on Talker.
