Star Explosion Reveals New Space Ingredients

Handout - Scientists have spotted chlorine and potassium hiding inside the remains of a blown-up star for the first time. Using Japan’s XRISM space telescope, they found these elements inside the giant cloud of debris left behind by the supernova called Cassiopeia A. The explosion happened about 11,000 light-years from Earth, but it is still giving up new secrets today. The find shows how stars don’t just light up the sky, they also make many of the elements that help build planets and life. Even long after a star explodes, it can still teach us something new about the universe. This discovery was published in a scientific paper on December 4 this year, and the image was released on January 28, 2024, using data from NASA’s Chandra telescope along with Hubble, Webb and Spitzer.

Hubble Tracks Jupiter’s Stormy Weather

Handout - Hubble Image of Jupiter’s Storm Activity and Io Taken January 6, 2024. NASA's Hubble Space Telescope imaged both sides of the giant planet, Jupiter, on January 5-6, 2024. Incredible new pictures show the stormy weather on Jupiter. The images, captured by NASA's Hubble Space Telescope on January 5-6, 2024, provide a view of both hemispheres of the planet. The space agency said Thursday (14 March) the visuals feature the largest planet in the Solar System "in all its banded glory". One image depicts the 'Great Red Spot,' the Solar System's largest storm, with a size massive enough to swallow the Earth. NASA explain that Hubble monitors Jupiter and the other outer solar system planets every year under the Outer Planet Atmospheres Legacy program (OPAL). OPAL focuses on long-term observations of Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune to monitor and understand changes in their atmospheres, including variations in weather patterns, cloud formations, and other atmospheric phenomena.
