The James Webb Space Telescope has once again lent a helping hand in the uncovering of ground-breaking astrophysical discoveries, this time imaging the darkest, densest clouds in the universe for the first time.
Comet C/2022 E3 ZTF is ready to amaze us at its brightest, reaching its minimum distance from the Earth. And today, you have a unique opportunity to enjoy the show - LIVE!
Over the past few decades, astronomers have discovered over 5000 exoplanets through methods of radial velocity, transits, gravitational microlensing and some even through direct imaging and astrometry.
I have been fascinated by the night sky since I ‘discovered’ Saturn with my 60mm refractor at the age of 10. An APOD-winning astrophotographer, I have been published in Sky & Telescope, Astronomy Magazine, and Space.com. As a NASA Solar System Ambassador, I have conducted thousands of public outreach programs and am a registered cruise ship speaker on astronomy and space science, as well as a Director of the Phoenix Astronomical Society. I frequently post astrophotography images, news, and tutorials on social media. My solar imaging and videos are particularly popular, and I have conducted extensive research on solar cameras and solar image processing techniques.
