Nice night for star gazing and a good crowd of students, friends, and families to view Jupiter and comet C/2022 E3 (ZTF).

We are heartbroken to hear of the passing of Dr. Debbie Warnaar. Dr. Warnaar started her career with us in 1992 and retired in 2021. She was an exceptional educator, mentor, and friend. She impacted the lives of countless students. She will be missed. https://t.co/PvA9IpPbw1

[NASA Webb Telescope @NASAWebb]

👀 Sneak a peek at the deepest & sharpest infrared image of the early universe ever taken — all in a day’s work for the Webb telescope. (Literally, capturing it took less than a day!) This is Webb’s first image released as we begin to #UnfoldTheUniverse: https://t.co/tlougFWg8B

[JMU News @JMUNews]

As President Biden prepares to release the first image from the James Webb Space Telescope at 5 p.m. today, JMU astrophysicist Anca Constantine is among those anxiously awaiting. Constantin is available to discuss the importance of the JWST. https://t.co/CTTCQ7RvJi
