JWST’s view of the α Cen AB system. Shown above is a background-subtracted Stage 2b F1550C image of the α Cen AB system from August 2024. The image is oriented
Joint PCA-KLIP subtraction of distinct subsets of the α Cen AB science integrations from the August 2024 observations. — astro-ph.SR JWST observed our closest solar twin, α Cen A, with
Stacked images of interstellar comet 3I/ATLAS acquired with UVOT obtained on July 31 and Aug 1, 2025. The image acquired with the V filter is shown on the left, the
(LEFT) Combined 130 s F350LP image of 3I/ATLAS showing diffuse asymmetric emission to the north west. (RIGHT) Same image contoured, with scale bar and direction arrows shown. The yellow and
This image of interstellar comet 3I/ATLAS was captured by the Hubble Space Telescope’s Wide Field Camera on 21 July 2025. The scale bar is labeled in arcseconds, which is a
In this natural-color version of the “Falbreen” panorama, colors have not been enhanced and the sky appears more reddish. Visible still is Perseverance’s 43rd rock abrasion (the white patch at
The average T Tauri (top) and VLMS (bottom) sample JWST spectra. The detected molecular species are highlighted. The C2H2 and H2O regions (yellow and blue, respectively) show the regions over
