Por Shots de Ciencia Podcast #Recomendado Tweet T2. E11: Las primeras imágenes del telescopio espacial James Webb En esta entrega de Shots estelar, Juan Diego Soler y Esteban Pardo, conversan sobre las primeras imágenes del telescopio James Webb. El Webb, que fue lanzado a finales del 2021 entregó sus primeras capturas a la humanidad seis meses después. ¿Quiere enterarse de la tecnología detrás de estas "fotografías" y del telescopio más avanzado que ha construido el ser humano? No se pierda este Shot estelar y entérese de lo que esta nueva ventana al universo nos puede mostrar.

Por NASA Podcast #Recomendado Tweet Gravity Assist: How We Make Webb (and Hubble) Images The world will get a first glimpse of the universe as never before when the first images from the James Webb Space Telescope come out on July 12. And this is only the beginning — the telescope will deliver all kinds of insights about galaxies, planets, and more, for years to come. But someone has to translate that data into beautiful imagery, especially since Webb collects light that falls outside of human vision. That’s where Joe DePasquale of the Space Telescope Science Institute comes in. Learn how he makes choices about color and other aspects of space images in this week’s Gravity Assist podcast.

Por NASA Podcast #Recomendado Tweet Gravity Assist: Listening to the Universe, with Kim Arcand NASA spacecraft deliver stunning visual imagery of the cosmos, but we can also experience that data by turning it into sound. Kim Arcand at the Chandra X-Ray Observatory has helped develop many different sonifications including from galaxies, black holes, nebulae and more. Kim chats with NASA’s Chief Scientist Jim Green about her process of choosing instruments to represent different kinds of light, and plays a few examples of these cosmic sounds. Check out the full series of sonifications at chandra.si.edu/sound.

Por NASA Podcast #Recomendado Tweet Gravity Assist: Where are the Goldilocks Stars? With Giada Arney Without our Sun, there would be no life on Earth. The Sun gives us exactly the amount of heat we need to survive. But our Sun represents only one type of star in the universe. Smaller, fainter stars called K stars are more common in our galaxy and also have planets, but we know far less about them. Giada Arney, astrophysicist at NASA’s Goddard Space Flight Center, is looking at the potential for K stars to host habitable worlds. Learn about how stars affect planetary environments and why complex life on early Earth was impossible.
