Jupiter up close…

Even scientists didn’t expect Webb telescope images of Jupiter to be this good | CNN

Data has traveled across the solar system to make it into the James Webb Space Telescope, and now we get a better look at the planet Jupiter. NASA shared images of the gas giant’s colorful auroras, giant storms and faint rings.

Fascinating…

Rare type of galaxy dazzles in new Webb telescope image

The James Webb Space Telescope has captured a stunning image of a mysterious and rare cosmic treat called the Carthweel galaxy. This slowly transforming galaxy, created by a collision, is located 500 million light-years away.

Happy 8th birthday, Sir Duke!

There are cookies galore today, buddy!

This is my best friend Duke…or Sir Duke if you aren’t into the whole brevity thing. In this photo, Duke is partying it up at our annual holiday get-together yesterday. Not many people (let alone dogs) can pull off a bow tie, but Duke pulls it off and then some. He has probably started a trend. Aunt Kathie gave it to him, and he loves it so much, he’s still wearing it. Today, he’s been staring at the front door, just so that he can show off his bow tie to the UPS guy or the mailman. Duke likes to party (sometimes), but around his peeps, he’s an animal.

Happy 2nd year adoption anniversary, Duke!
