      @@LaunchPadAstronomy Is there any way to request nasa to direct JWST towards Betelgeuse?
      Can jwst detect the heat signature of gravitational wave that was produced due to the collision of G3 with Cartwheel Galaxy? I am asking this because I have heard that gravitational waves heat up the nterior of stars, planets and even dust clouds through which they pass. As James Webb is an Infrared telescope which can see in mid infrared and far infrared so I think that it must see the infrared light produced by the heating of galactic dust as the gravitational wave passed through it. Isn't it?
      What if Beteljuse go supernova right now? As Miri can take image of only a small part of the sky at a time and then it has to wait for 30 seconds to take another image adjacent to the prior part of the sky in the first image, so how the James Webb team will manage to take the Mid infrared image of the whole supernova covering a lot of area in the sky in very less time... Another problem is that if Betelgeuse goes supernova tonight, the supernova remnants and dust will block the view of sky behind Betelgeuse ... So don't you think that Webb should investegate the sky behind Betelgeuse as quickly as possible before its goes supernova and block the view?
      Please Reply..

    One of the very interesting things in this image is that JWST also reveals background galaxies even through the galaxy. One of the Ultraluminous X-ray sources actually appears to be a background object now, it being very bright in Chandra's image, but having a very deep red colour and a defined shape in the NIRCam. This is new info that we could only get through JWST's enhanced resolution!

    @junkmail4613 Рік тому +1

    Couple of years ago you did such a beautiful job explaining the billion to one magnification possible with "gravitational lensing," With your skills, (and I've heard nowhere else) a description of with the new JWST or otherwise "How they can determine how much dark matter is involved in curving the path of light from distant galaxies" I can imagine during a solar eclipse seeing a star in a position deflected from it's known position with and without the close proximity of the sun to it's direct path from that star. But for that to be seen and known, objects move rapidly with respect to the geometry involved, BUT long distances, and slow motion of these nebulous clouds of dark matter near the paths of light from distant galaxies, my mental faculties are severely challenged. Not knowing where these galaxies really are due to the path of light being so strongly gravimetrically influenced by some unknown amount of dark matter near the path of light? The question I ask is, "How can they calculate the mass of the dark matter influencing that light path?" Could you please explain the math, the geometry,
    Adjacent topic, Hubble, I've heard light is red-shifted as it travels from distant locations to us. (Presumes Doppler-Shifted by velocity recession of distant objects) Is it possible that a photon circumventing all the gravimetric objects interceding between the source and us, causing that photons path be turned and deflected by every near mass to it's path, "LOSES SOME ENERGY" to every mass that deflects it. I mean every mass that deflects it is also deflected by it. Every micro black hole, every atom, electron, proton etc, WOULD BE MOVED SOME MICROSCOPIC AMOUNT towards the centerline of that photon's path, gaining some energy from that photon, SLOWING IT'S FREQUENCY, lengthening it's wavelength, making it appear red-shifted? The illusion that our math creates is that the source of that photon must be receding from us at ever increasing speed, but maybe the fact of the matter is that the mass of all near the photon's path is resonating and absorbing energy, momentum from that photon? The nearby masses are being "RUNG" by the influence of that photon going by. I'm thinking about VERY SMALL AMOUNTS OF ENERGY, but who ever thought orbiting objects could dissipate the rotational energy of stellar masses to excite LIGO? Somehow light(ElectroMagneticWaves) and gravity ARE RELATED. The double slot experiment, duality of particle and wave, I think of the 'radiometer" balanced white vs black vanes turning in a vacuum. There's an impact there between the photon and the vanes! THE PATH OF LIGHT IS NOT A STRAIGHT LINE, but rather a perpetually curving path, following the gradient between the masses around it, and I might propose constantly losing slight amounts of energy, every mass that is deflected from it's position or trajectory. (THEREBY REDDENING!) every curvature imparts an impulse to the center of mass dodged!
    I'd appreciate a response to these two concepts. Of all the folks I know I believe you certainly "HAVE THE COMPOS MENTIS" to reply constructively and intelligently, and can maybe recommend one who could reply in language I might understand. Thanks Prof. ... ( by the way, I'm awed by the complexity of the concept with which you deal.)
    I have two competing stories for the turning of the photon path near a concentrated mass:
    1. the nonzero mass of the photon is drawn towards the center of the concentrated mass or
    2. as the wavefront of the photon passes lower on the center of the gravity well, the side of the wavefront deeper in the gravity well is slowed more than the side higher on the well slowing it less, thereby causing the turn.
    R.S.V.P. I value your help! Thanks.

    BS! There is no way for anyone to know things about this galaxy. I want to see what's out there as much as you but let's do it without the BS.

      It’s been studied pretty extensively since 1941. I think we’ve worked out a few things about it in that time.

      Just because it's beyond your ability to understand, doesn't make it BS. Reality isn't restricted to the limits of your understanding. That's a you problem.
