Such amphiphile molecules are likely to collect in a thin film on the surface of Titan’s lakes. As large raindrops pelt the lakes, they could stir up this floating “pond scum” to form spherical droplets of methane coated in a bilayer of amphiphiles – structures called vesicles that resemble cell membranes on Earth.Although such vesicles have yet to be detected on Titan, a 2025 study by Christian Mayer and NASA scientist Conor Nixon lays out the process for their formation and evolution, and it proposes a mechanism for their discovery by a future mission to Titan.

The alignment of the telescope across all of Webb’s instruments can be seen in a series of images that captures the observatory’s full field of view. Featured in this video are engineering images demonstrating the sharp focus of each instrument. For this test, Webb pointed at part of the Large Magellanic Cloud, a small satellite galaxy of the Milky Way, providing a dense field of hundreds of thousands of stars across all the observatory’s sensors. The sizes and positions of the images shown depict the relative arrangement of each of Webb’s instruments in the telescope’s focal plane, each pointing at a slightly offset part of the sky relative to one another. Webb’s three imaging instruments are NIRCam (images shown here at a wavelength of 2 microns), NIRISS (image shown here at 1.5 microns), and MIRI (shown at 7.7 microns, a longer wavelength revealing emission from interstellar clouds as well as starlight). NIRSpec is a spectrograph rather than imager but can take images, such as the 1.1 micron image shown here, for calibrations and target acquisition. The dark regions visible in parts of the NIRSpec data are due to structures of its microshutter array, which has several hundred thousand controllable shutters that can be opened or shut to select which light is sent into the spectrograph. Lastly, Webb’s Fine Guidance Sensor tracks guide stars to point the observatory accurately and precisely; its two sensors are not generally used for scientific imaging but can take calibration images such as those shown here. This image data is used not just to assess image sharpness but also to precisely measure and calibrate subtle image distortions and alignments between the instrument sensors as part of Webb’s overall instrument calibration process. || ", "hits": 77 }, { "id": 14118, "url": "https://svs.gsfc.nasa.gov/14118/", "result_type": "B-Roll", "release_date": "2022-03-16T10:00:00-04:00", "title": "NASA’s Webb Reaches Alignment Milestone, Optics Working Successfully", "description": "NASA’s Webb Reaches Alignment Milestone, Optics Working SuccessfullyFollowing the completion of critical mirror alignment steps, the James Webb Space Telescope team has great confidence that the observatory’s optical performance will meet or exceed the science goals it was built to achieve.On March 11, the Webb team completed the stage of alignment known as “fine phasing” – and at this key stage in the commissioning of Webb’s Optical Telescope Element, every optical parameter that has been checked and tested is performing at, or above, expectations.

This location is perfect for Webb's sunshield to block out light and heat from the Sun, Earth, and Moon. Unlike the Hubble Space Telescope, Webb's orbit keeps the spacecraft out of the Earth's shadow making L2 a thermally stable location for the observatory to operate at. Webb will operate within its field of regard. The \"field of regard\" refers to the angles the telescope can move while staying in the shadow of the Sun. Each of Webb's instruments has its own field of view. The field of view is the area of sky an instrument can observe. Webb's fine steering mirror is moved so that an object can be observed by the different instruments. This prevents the whole telescope from having to repoint itself to do so. The Webb Telescope’s commissioning process will be complete approximately six months after launch, at which time Webb start its science mission.

Webb's launch is a pivotal moment that exemplifies the dedication, innovation, and ambition behind NASA and its partners, the European Space Agency (ESA) and Canadian Space Agency (CSA), but it is only the beginning. The 29 days following liftoff will be an exciting but harrowing time. Thousands of parts must work correctly, in sequence, to unfold Webb and put it in its final configuration. All while Webb flies through the expanse of space, alone, to a destination nearly one million miles away from Earth. As the largest and most complex telescope ever sent into space, the James Webb Space Telescope is a technological marvel. By necessity, Webb takes on-orbit deployments to the extreme. Each step can be controlled expertly from the ground, giving Webb's Mission Operations Center full control to circumnavigate any unforseen issues with deployment. || ", "hits": 94 }, { "id": 13926, "url": "https://svs.gsfc.nasa.gov/13926/", "result_type": "Animation", "release_date": "2021-09-08T15:00:00-04:00", "title": "Swift Spacecraft Animation", "description": "NASA’s Neil Gehrels Swift Observatory, shown in this illustration, launched into Earth orbit in November 2004. The satellite investigates gamma-ray bursts, the most energetic explosions in the universe. Swift observes the sky in visible, ultraviolet, X-ray, and gamma-ray light. Its name reflects its ability to rapidly follow up on interesting objects in the sky. Swift also studies supernova explosions, star-shredding black holes in other galaxies, comets, stellar remnants called neutron stars, and other cosmic phenomena. In 2018, NASA renamed Swift in honor of the late Neil Gehrels, who helped develop the mission and served as its principal investigator for 13 years.Credit: NASA’s Goddard Space Flight Center/Chris Smith (KBRwyle) || swift_spacecraft_update_still.jpg (1920x1080) [769.2 KB] || swift_spacecraft_update_still_print.jpg (1024x576) [328.5 KB] || swift_spacecraft_update_still_searchweb.png (320x180) [94.8 KB] || swift_spacecraft_update_still_web.png (320x180) [94.8 KB] || swift_spacecraft_update_still_thm.png (80x40) [6.5 KB] || swift_spacecraft_update_HQ.mp4 (1920x1080) [47.7 MB] || swift_spacecraft_update_LQ.mp4 (1920x1080) [24.7 MB] || swift_spacecraft_update_prores.mov (1920x1080) [255.2 MB] || swift_spacecraft_update_HQ.webm (1920x1080) [2.2 MB] || ", "hits": 102 }, { "id": 13896, "url": "https://svs.gsfc.nasa.gov/13896/", "result_type": "Animation", "release_date": "2021-08-11T13:00:00-04:00", "title": "OSIRIS-REx Sheds Light on Hazardous Asteroid Bennu", "description": "OSIRIS-REx is improving our understanding of asteroid Bennu’s future impact hazard.Complete transcript available.Universal Production Music: “Time Particles” by Laetitia FrenodWatch this video on the NASA Goddard YouTube channel. || BennuImpactHazardPreview_print.jpg (1024x576) [110.3 KB] || BennuImpactHazardPreview.png (3840x2160) [5.2 MB] || BennuImpactHazardPreview.jpg (3840x2160) [1.1 MB] || BennuImpactHazardPreview_searchweb.png (180x320) [45.8 KB] || BennuImpactHazardPreview_thm.png (80x40) [3.5 KB] || TWITTER_720_13896_Bennu_Impact_Hazard_MASTER_twitter_720.mp4 (1280x720) [29.3 MB] || 13896_Bennu_Impact_Hazard_MASTER.webm (960x540) [47.1 MB] || FACEBOOK_720_13896_Bennu_Impact_Hazard_MASTER_facebook_720.mp4 (1280x720) [180.0 MB] || 13896_Bennu_Impact_Hazard_Captions.en_US.srt [4.0 KB] || 13896_Bennu_Impact_Hazard_Captions.en_US.vtt [3.8 KB] || 13896_Bennu_Impact_Hazard_SPANISH.mp4 (3840x2160) [200.8 MB] || 13896_Bennu_Impact_Hazard_YouTube.mp4 (3840x2160) [1.7 GB] || 13896_Bennu_Impact_Hazard_MASTER.mov (3840x2160) [18.6 GB] || ", "hits": 163 }, { "id": 20356, "url": "https://svs.gsfc.nasa.gov/20356/", "result_type": "Animation", "release_date": "2021-08-11T00:00:00-04:00", "title": "Asteroid Bennu Impact Hazard: Animations", "description": "On September 25, 2135, an asteroid called Bennu will make a close flyby of Earth.

The X-ray burst, the brightest seen by NICER so far, came from an object named SAX J1808.4-3658, or J1808 for short. The observations reveal many phenomena that have never been seen together in a single burst. In addition, the subsiding fireball briefly brightened again for reasons astronomers cannot yet explain. The data reveal a two-step change in brightness, which scientists think is caused by the ejection of separate layers from the pulsar surface, and other features that will help them decode the physics of these powerful events.The explosion, which astronomers classify as a Type I X-ray burst, released as much energy in 20 seconds as the Sun does in nearly 10 days.J1808 is located about 11,000 light-years away in the constellation Sagittarius, spins at a dizzying 401 rotations each second, and is one member of a binary system. Its companion is a brown dwarf, an object larger than a giant planet yet too small to be a star. A steady stream of hydrogen gas flows from the companion toward the neutron star, and it accumulates in a vast storage structure called an accretion disk.Hydrogen raining onto the pulsar's surface forms a hot, ever-deepening global “sea.” At the base of this layer, temperatures and pressures increase until hydrogen nuclei fuse to form helium nuclei, which produces energy — a process at work in the core of our Sun. The helium settles out and builds up a layer of its own. Eventually, the conditions allow helium nuclei to fuse into carbon. The helium erupts explosively and unleashes a thermonuclear fireball across the entire pulsar surface.As the burst started, NICER data show that its X-ray brightness leveled off for almost a second before increasing again at a slower pace. The researchers interpret this “stall” as the moment when the energy of the blast built up enough to blow the pulsar’s hydrogen layer into space. The fireball continued to build for another two seconds and then reached its peak, blowing off the more massive helium layer. The helium expanded faster, overtook the hydrogen layer before it could dissipate, and then slowed, stopped and settled back down onto the pulsar’s surface. Following this phase, the pulsar briefly brightened again by roughly 20 percent for reasons the team does not yet understand. || ", "hits": 65 }, { "id": 13339, "url": "https://svs.gsfc.nasa.gov/13339/", "result_type": "Animation", "release_date": "2019-10-28T10:00:00-04:00", "title": "The Mysterious Planet", "description": "By studying this mysterious planet, scientists could learn a great deal about exoplanets, as well as the past, present, and possible future of our own.
