Earth Shattering Revelation Of Proxima By The Webb

[toobfreak]

I just had this brought to my attention by an astronomy student in Catalonia, Spain. The Webb Telescope just released this ground-breaking photo of our nearest (extra-solar) star, Proxima Centuri (satellite of Alpha Centauri):

With this caption translated from French:

Photo of Proxima Centauri, the closest star to the Sun, located 4.2 light-years from us.
It was taken by the JWST.
This level of detail... A new world is revealing itself day by day.

This is a direct image, and not interpolated by speckling interferometry as all previous attempts have been.

This level of detail from 4 lightyears away is absolutely stunning. Enjoy.

Is that a Star of David or a Pentagram on its surface?

And just think, that's how it looked 4 years ago.

I've used special unsharp contour shaping tools to try to bring out further detail in this image:

That's how long it took for the light to get here.

Ok, I'm having trouble discerning if this is a joke or not.
If it's not, this..is..fucking...PRICELESS!!

Freaky..you are my HERO!

Thanks Jack, you've actually done something useful for a change even if you still must act like an ass.

This explains why I haven't been able to find this image posted at NASA or other places one might expect.

I'll let my friend in Catalonia know that the image he sent out is just a ruse.

Shame people have to pull crap like this.

You (admittedly along with millions of others) swallowed this WHOLE!

After the constant ass you are on a daily basis, you'll have to allow me a small moment of HAHAHAHAHAHA!!!

I didn't bother checking up on it because the student I know is normally very reputable. I only began wondering about it when looking for larger file copies of it at NASA, I couldn't find any mention of it.

Jack, I'm never an ass, I merely reflect back to people what they project to others.

Four year old chorizo? I bet a leftist would still suck it.

Face it, you swallowed that sausage..whole!

Damn, all you do is talking about swallowing sausage.

Petty, Jack, you are showing your true colors.
