News from the edge of the visible universe:
JWST has confirmed this galaxy, MoM-z14, as the most distant one yet studied. We're seeing it as it was 13.5 billion years ago, 98% of the way back to the beginning of time.
(MoM stands for "miracle or mirage," to give you a sense of where the researchers' heads are at.)

Just got notified from the American Astronomical Society that their survey on anticipated impacts of Reflect Orbital (whose business model is "we will beam sunlight down to Earth at night because woo space”; never mind the titanic impacts on circadian rhythms of every living thing on the planet) has really gained traction.
DarkSky International has an open letter you can sign, and we expect a public comment period from the FCC on this in the next few weeks. Hit up public.policy@aas.org if you have questions. #space #astronomy
(and shout out @sundogplanets for raising the profile of this issue before I heard about it anywhere else)

Why the Artemis II Crew Stays in Quarantine Before Their Journey to Moon
For two weeks, medical experts monitor the astronauts as they remain indoors, live in isolation, and avoid physical touch, all to prevent harmful microbes from traveling to space.
