James Webb Space Telescope reveals unexpected ‘Red Monsters’ in the early universe

Xiao & & P. A. Oesch (University of Geneva), G. Brammer (Niels Bohr Institute), Dawn JWST Archive) For a long period of time, astronomers thought galaxy development followed a really particular design: cosmic gas gathers in clumps, stars are born from those clumps, and, over billions of years, excellent communities slowly increase in size. The James Webb Space Telescope, introduced in December 2021, has actually interfered with that design.In a brand-new research study, researchers recognized 3 enormous galaxies-- called "Red Monsters"-- each nearly the size of the Milky Way, currently ou...

The Art of Time Travel

Science and Nature
Time is both an essential form of measurement that rules our day-to-day lives and a concept that no one quite understands. From the ultrafast zeptosecond to the billions of years that the universe has been in existence, we can easily measure time’s passage. Yet some scientists question whether it is even fundamentally real. While the concept of time can feel impossible to capture, that hasn’t stopped artist Lia Halloran from trying. Many of her projects tackle how scale and time shift our perception of reality. In her 2022 piece Double Horizon, a 3-channel video installation piece, she projected divergent but closely related images of Los Angeles from a series of repeated flights she made over the city as she learned to fly. In her 2008 work Dark Skate, she skateboarded at night...
