Uranus has never looked better. Really.
Only Voyager 2 and Keck (with adaptive optics) have imaged the planet's faintest rings before, and never as clearly as Webb’s first glimpse at this ice giant, which also highlights bright atmospheric features. https://t.co/aE3rJIqVKy
Talented jerks are the people who smash both targets and team cohesion, who get stuff done and get away with behaving badly as a result https://t.co/TqP7HDk6kb
Now we have a broader (and even more beautiful!) understanding of the galaxy M74!
These Hubble and @NASAWebb views show the power of observing in different wavelengths. Hubble’s optical vision highlights older stars near the center and younger, bluer stars in the spiral arms.
We finally have the first look at our Milky Way black hole, Sagittarius A*. It’s the dawn of a new era of black hole physics. Credit: EHT Collaboration. #OurBlackHole#SgrABlackHole

#Didyouknow Andre Geim is the only laureate to have received an IgNobel Prize - which honours achievements that first make people laugh, then think. He was awarded his Nobel Prize for creating graphene and his IgNobel for using magnets to levitate a frog.

Today, the Navy appealed DOH's Red Hill emergency order in state and federal court. We will continue our fight to protect Hawaiʻi residents and our environment.
"I’ve decided my New Year's Resolution is to become less sensitive to criticism."
"It's already February."
"I didn't think of it until now! Shouldn’t I try to improve myself whenever I see fit?"
"Sure. Good luck with that."
"What does that mean? DO YOU THINK I'M DOING A BAD JOB?"
"Normally, you don't hear me unless I shout. But I don't have that in me tonight. I am standing on the ragged edge of forever right now, and I need you to either pull me back or let me go. I can't wait here anymore, no matter how beautiful the view is."
#NASAWebb is fully deployed! 🎉
With the successful deployment & latching of our last mirror wing, that's:
50 major deployments, complete.
178 pins, released.
20+ years of work, realized.
Next to #UnfoldTheUniverse: traveling out to our orbital destination of Lagrange point 2!
This week, a #KonaLow brought drenching rain, flash flooding and blizzard conditions to Hawaii.
See how @NOAA#satellites monitored it from above in this week's #EarthFromOrbit video:
