NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope has captured a stunning image of a young protostar forming within the dark molecular cloud L1527. The image, taken with Webb’s Mid-Infrared Instrument (MIRI), reveals a vibrant hourglass-shaped structure approximately 460 light-years away in the constellation Taurus. The protostar, about 100,000 years old, is seen gathering material from its surrounding gas and dust.

Wherever massive stars form, black holes inevitably arise, ranging from a few solar masses up to 100 solar masses or even a little bit greater. At the cores of galaxies, supermassive black holes abound, with masses ranging from several hundred thousand to many billions of times the mass of our Sun. However, intermediate mass black holes have long remained elusive. A new discovery claims a black hole of 8200 solar masses at the center of globular cluster Omega Centauri, changing the game forever.

Strongest “missing link” in black hole physics discovered at last

Besides the planets and their satellites, our solar system hosts countless rocky asteroids and glowing comets, all whizzing through the black vacuum of space. But there are also mysterious objects called dark comets, which have the characteristics of both conventional asteroids and comets. And now an international team of astronomers say these objects could be so ubiquitous that they could have brought water to Earth in the distant past.
