JWST sees further than ever

The Universe is absolutely full of galaxies. Plus a new dwarf planet, new magnetar measurements, and weird neutrinos.

There's no stopping hypervelocity stars

They're leaving the Galaxy. Also tectonic activity on Venus, a weird retrograde exoplanet, and galaxies firing jets at each other.

A massive star is making a run for it

It's charging right through a nearby nebula. Plus Voyager 1's thrusters come back to life, water ice outside the Solar System, and the Universe will die sooner than we thought.

Adam McMaster

The strangeness of Arp 184

Why does this galaxy look this way? Plus new measurements of Jupiter, the coldest exoplanet ever found, and jets and eruptions from supermassive black holes.

An amazing photo of Mars' atmosphere

A fantastic old image I'd never seen before, but is it real? Plus auroral electrojets and accreting black holes.

Check out the Sun in amazing detail

A high res composite from Solar Orbiter. Plus worrying ocean warming, a planet in a polar orbit, and our weird galactic neighbour.

Is it aliens?

No, it is not. Plus storms on Jupiter, a nearby supernova (eventually), and the discovery of a whole lot of hydrogen.

Ten groundbreaking years of Gaia

A mission which has revolutionised our understanding of the Milky Way.

The most amazing gravitational lens I've ever seen

JWST has delivered the goods yet again.

Could trees be important for the future of astronomy?

It's more likely than it sounds, plus auroras on Neptune, direct images of exoplanets, and a near miss with the Milky Way.

Adam McMaster

The surprising way black holes affect their galaxies (and it’s not with gravity)

Supermassive back holes do more than pull things in, plus new research on meteorites, supernovae, and dark energy.

Why life would not exist without helium

Where this newsletter's name comes from, plus a multitude of moons, droves of white dwarfs, and merging black holes.
