Touche
a good cosmic primer

Genius can be seeing what we all see but thinking about it differently than anyone else alive. Like the quantum laws, rationality can be less than worthless. Neuroplasticity lasts a lifetime so even old dogmatic minds can learn new tricks.

Some folks believe that dark matter is primordial dark matter stuff that can be tiny atomic size to ultra massive size. A primordial black hole has to be made of different material than visible matter fed black holes since there wasn't enough time to grow to such enormous sizes so soon after the big bang...
they think.
Only one part in a billion of matter remaining from the matter anti matter annihilation survived which is the visible matter we see. What about the 999,999,999 remainder of disintegrated annihilated matter? Much of it is energy but a small amount is the strange debris that might be primordial black hole stuff or dark matter. That dark matter out numbers visible matter by 70 to 90% compared to the small amount of visible matter.
If this sounds familiar congratulations, you understood me the first time around 10 years ago. Of course I could be wrong but thats the way I see it. Of course I can't see dark matter. Some say primoridial black hole stuff is less dense than than normal black hole stuff.

Webb is focusing

Einstien solved the gravity question 100 years ago as an effect of matter curving spacetime's direction but were still bent out of shape over quantum gravity. I say forget it. It's probably the same force that gathers dust bunnies together. Quantum gravity may just be electro dynamic as well. That is my simplistic and naieve conclusion.
Anyone else have an opinion or better yet, an answer ?

Webb has reached operational temperature and is focused.
We are going to see the internal structure of Orion's belt nebula first.

This past week we've had our first official picture downloads and the very happy project members have been interviewed on nightly news and 60 Minutes. Today on NPR (US public radio) mention was made that they have made the most of their fuel supply and could be up and running for a couple of decades, if the creek don't rise and the micro-meteoroids allow.

The photos I've seen have been HD Screen worthy beyond any of my laptops.

Space.com video: James Webb space telescope view of the Pillars of Creation

Astronomers have discovered a cluster of galaxies merging around a rare red quasar, a "monster" supermassive black hole that is greedily feeding on gas and other material.

An international team of scientists made the surprising discovery as they were using the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) to stare billions of years back in time. The finding represents an opportunity to observe how early galaxies merged forming the universe as we see it today. The blindingly bright quasar and extremely red quasar, known as SDSS J165202.64+172852.3, is about 11.5 billion years old and one of the most powerful ever seen from a such tremendous distance away, according to the researchers, who describe it as a black hole in formation.

"We think something dramatic is about to happen in these systems," Andrey Vayner, research co-author and an astrophysicist at Johns Hopkins University in Maryland, said in a statement. "The galaxy is at this perfect moment in its lifetime, about to transform and look entirely different in a few billion years."

The bigger story is if that red black hole is a primordial black hole that came directly from the big bang that they have been looking for.

Bright and early Wednesday monring about 1300 hours Eastern Time U.S. we are sposed to have a launch of Artemis, who is feeling a bit left out in the rain a coupla times.

Fingers crossed!

The Webb can look through clouds. Here young clouds of matter are feeding this proto star. https://apod.nasa.gov/apod/image/2211/weic2219a.jpg

Artemis seems to be suffering from a lack of puliciy due to its great success. Once launched, its liftoff was successful, and it has been on its designated path, currently circling the moon.

Sonifications made from the data from pressure waves from black holes, nebulas, and other cosmic bodies are a wonder to hear. Black holes are the deepest sounds in the universe at 52 octaves below our hearing so the data has to be modified for us to hear.

A new telescope should be able to image the infant universe in its first moment. I don't think its interferometer will work but I don't believe that inflation happened. I believe that time mererly stopped to a crawl in the presence of new immense mass. Kaku believes it may even image a pre big bang universe. Again I don't think so.

So we might get to see who or what lit the blue touch paper?
