Hey, stargazers!
What's Up for December? The Moon is on the move, slipping past Jupiter (twice!) and passing in front of Mars, while the winged stallion constellation, Pegasus, will be on view. 👀

Here is Webb’s first look at Saturn’s largest moon, Titan. Because Titan has a dense atmosphere, its surface is hidden in visible light. Enter Webb’s infrared eye, which captured clouds as well as bright & dark patches on its surface: go.nasa.gov/3FijpXN

Some are so blasted by their stars that surfaces are covered in lava; others may have jewels floating in winds. Each one is wonder!

My collection is growing! 🪨 I’ve now got my 15th rock core: a nice piece of sandstone.
Up next, I’m heading back to a nearby dune to break out a new tool – my regolith collection bit – for gathering loose, sandy material. #SamplingMars continues…

A pair of views of a pair of (merging) galaxies? Yes, please!
Hubble and @NASAWebb have both observed the galactic pair II ZW 96 in different wavelengths of light.
You can learn more about these views here: go.nasa.gov/3GZrPo8
#Hubble
In Hubble’s visible-light view from 2008, the starburst systems that have formed between the two galactic cores with their older stars are clearly seen.
However, Webb’s view showcases the brightness of the star-forming regions which have been activated by this merger, which are particularly luminous in infrared light, which Webb observes.
LIVE NOW: We're previewing @NASA_Orion’s scheduled departure from its distant retrograde orbit around the Moon, which will begin on Thursday, Dec. 1 at 4:53pm ET (21:53 UTC). #Artemis twitter.com/i/broadcasts/1kvJp…

The team used data from Argo floats, underwater instruments that drift and bob with ocean currents.
These devices measure chlorophyll-a and particulate carbon in the water – both factors that indicate phytoplankton are present.
