Hot New Planetary System Just Dropped.

We hope you like your planetary systems extra spicy. 🔥

A new system of seven sizzling planets has been discovered using data from our retired Kepler space telescope.

Named Kepler-385, it’s part of a new catalog of planet candidates and multi-planet systems discovered using Kepler.

The discovery helps illustrate that multi-planetary systems have more circular orbits around the host star than systems with only one or two planets.

Our Kepler mission is responsible for the discovery of the most known exoplanets to date. The space telescope’s observations ended in 2018, but its data continues to paint a more detailed picture of our galaxy today.

Here are a few more things to know about Kepler-385:

All seven planets are between the size of Earth and Neptune.

Its star is 10% larger and 5% hotter than our Sun.

This system is one of over 700 that Kepler’s data has revealed.

The planets’ orbits have been represented in sound.

Now that you’ve heard a little about this planetary system, get acquainted with more exoplanets and why we want to explore them.

Discovery Alert! In A New Discovery Released On Nov 28, 2023, James Webb Telescope Captures Stunning

🌌✨ Cosmic Chronicles: Unveiling the Drama in Perseus! 🚀🔭

Dive into the mesmerizing cosmic ballet of Perseus as NASA's James Webb Space Telescope captures the breathtaking Herbig-Haro object 797 (HH 797)! 🌟🔍👶 Birth of Stars: HH 797, nestled near the youthful star cluster IC 348, takes center stage, surrounded by luminous shockwaves formed by stellar winds and gas jets. It's a newborn star's grand entrance into the cosmic scene! 🎇

🔍 Through the Webb's Lens: The Near-InfraRed Camera (NIRCam) of the Webb telescope unveils intricate details, penetrating the cosmic dust and gas. Infrared magic reveals the drama of molecular hydrogen and carbon monoxide, showcasing the turbulent dance of celestial forces. 💫🔭

🌟 Double Star Revelation: What was thought to be one outflow is, in reality, a cosmic duo! HH 797 harbors two parallel outflows, each originating from a double star, debunking previous assumptions and adding a new twist to the cosmic narrative. 🌠

🔬 Scientific Insights: Ground-based observations hinted at velocity asymmetries, but the Webb's high resolution now clarifies the gradient across the outflow. The cold molecular gas displays red-shifted brilliance to the south and blue-shifted elegance to the north, deepening our understanding of stellar dynamics. 🌌📊

🌠 Cosmic Neighbors: HH 797 shares its cosmic neighborhood with HH 211, bringing us a step closer to unraveling the mysteries of Perseus. Stay tuned for the cosmic saga's continuation! 🌌📡

✨ Join the Journey: Explore, and marvel at the cosmic spectacle! 🚀🌠 #CosmicDiscovery #NASAWebbTelescope #PerseusUnveiled #StellarDrama

This image showcases the galaxy JADES-GS-z6, a research target in the deep galaxy field of GOODS-South, observed as part of the JWST Advanced Deep Extragalactic Survey (JADES). The galaxy's hazy appearance in blue, red, and green indicates the data captured by Webb's NIRCam at various near-infrared wavelengths. This finding by an international team of astronomers reveals the chemical signature of carbon-rich dust grains at redshift ~7, approximately one billion years after the Universe's birth, offering exciting insights into the early Universe's cosmic dust production and earliest stellar populations. Credits: ESA/Webb, NASA, ESA, CSA, B.

Galaxy Pair Resembles ‘Blood-Soaked’ Eyes in Webb Image

NASA’s James Webb and Hubble Space Telescopes have captured a chilling view of two galaxies that resemble a pair of glowing, blood-soaked eyes peering through space! These galaxies, IC 2163 and NGC 2207, brushed past each other millions of years ago, creating a striking cosmic “mask” made visible with Webb's infrared and Hubble's ultraviolet and visible light.

The duo reveals vivid pink star-forming regions and eerie orange cores that give it an almost supernatural appearance — a reminder of the wild beauty in our universe! 🔭 Learn more - https://www.jameswebbdiscovery.com/discoveries/galaxy-pair-resembles-blood-soaked-eyes-in-webb-image
