Classroom Aid - Early Galaxy Proto-Cluster

2023 was a great year with both Hubble, Webb and others making new discoveries and producing amazing images. We start out with an update on the DART asteroid collision we covered last year. Staying inside the Solar System, we cover the Parker Solar Probe’s journey through the Suns corona. Moving beyond the Solar System, we’ll see molecular clouds, brown dwarfs, Herbig-Haro objects, and take a deeper look into the Crab and Cassiopeia nebulas. We’ll then do a little astrochemistry in the Iris Nebula. Moving beyond our galaxy, we cover dwarf galaxies, a runaway black hole, a possible intermediate mass black hole, intergalactic stars, and some of the oldest galaxies ever found. We’ll end with the first release images from ‘Euclid,” our newest space telescope.

Thanks for sharing this. It is such an interesting subject that i often want to share with people. But hardly anyone is truly interested.
Luckily my son is, so i'm trying to inspire him even more.

There's no big bang. We have no idea and never can know how old or how big the universe is.
