JWST Sees Star BEFORE It Forms

↓↓↓ Links and more in full description below ↓↓↓

JWST has imaged the process of a star forming in more detail than we've ever seen before. The dust around a protostar normally blocks the light we want to see, but the infrared light that JWST detects is very good at escaping the dust and revealing the secrets of the formation to us.

I am so glad to have found your channel, you explain things really well

[DanielPizarro]

lovely news, i knew the JWST would be able to capture protostars

Glad I found your channel, such awesome vids, you cover way more things ab jwst than antov does, he’s been my go to until now:)

A really beautiful video, Chris. As this is a protostar what is driving the movement of the dust or is radiation causing the dust to glow in an hourglass shape?

Jwst recently captured 2 old record broken galaxies at a redshift of 12.

Chris Pattinson- I have a question if you know the answer:
When a proto star begins nuclear fusion, does a chain reaction happen in seconds, minutes, hours, weeks, months ... how long from the first fusion of hydrogen to it being a star?
Or am I asking the wrong question?

[BryonElliott]

Do we know whether this protostar is fusing lithium yet?

Thought I’d pop and say hi. So, hi 👋🏼
