Three objects spotted by James Webb Space Telescope may be dark stars: massive, luminous and powered by dark matter annihilation.
If confirmed, they could reshape theories of early star formation ⭐ https://theconversation.com/when-darkness-shines-how-dark-stars-could-illuminate-the-early-universe-266971 #space #science

Apparently the Chinese wrap you in a giant mummy bag when you come back from space. 🤔 Does that make you a space mummy?

Aurora in southern New Mexico - now with green bands added! (This was at approx 7:20PM Mountain Daylight time)
I'm taking images every 21 seconds, and the green bands move across a good portion of the frame in that short time span.
Florida is reporting aurora sightings! (3rd graphic)
2nd graphic shows the sky coverage of the wide angle lens I'm using. The aurora is 30 to 35 degrees above the horizon when it's bright.

Aurora in southern New Mexico is now an easy naked eye red glow that covers more of the sky than an hour ago.
This image has been processed with an aggressive unsharp mask to show the ray structure.
Previous report: (one hour earlier)
