JWST confirms MOST DISTANT galaxy! Plus nuclear fusion ignition & Artemis splashdown | NSN Dec ’22

Описание: In this month's Night Sky News we chat about how to spot all the solar system planets in the betwixtmas period, the splashdown of Orion of the Artemis 1 mission, the breakthrough in nuclear fusion at the Livermore Laboratory, and a new record holder for the most distant galaxy known confirmed by JWST!

👩🏽‍💻 I'm Dr. Becky Smethurst, an astrophysicist at the University of Oxford (Christ Church). I love making videos about science with an unnatural level of enthusiasm. I like to focus on how we know things, not just what we know. And especially, the things we still don't know. If you've ever wondered about something in space and couldn't find an answer online - you can ask me! My day job is to do research into how supermassive black holes can affect the galaxies that they live in. In particular, I look at whether the energy output from the disk of material orbiting around a growing supermassive black hole can stop a galaxy from forming stars.
