NASA的詹姆斯·韦伯太空望远镜证明星系改变了早期宇宙
在早期宇宙中，恒星和星系之间的气体是不透明的——高能的星光无法穿透它。但是在宇宙大爆炸10亿年后，这种气体变得完全透明。为什么？NASA的詹姆斯·韦伯太空望远镜的新数据已经确定了原因。

Scores of baby stars shrouded by dust are revealed in this infrared image of the star-forming region NGC 2174, as seen by NASA’s Spitzer Space Telescope. Some of the clouds in the region resemble the face of a monkey in visible-light images, hence the nebula’s nickname: the “Monkey Head.” However, in infrared images such as this, the monkey...
哈勃太空望远镜观测到一个闪烁的星团
The densely packed globular cluster NGC 6325 glistens in this image from the NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope. This concentrated group of stars lies around 26,000 light-years from Earth in the constellation Ophiuchus. Globular clusters like NGC 6325 are tightly bound collections of stars with anywhere from tens of thousands to millions of members. They can be...
