The report from Jupiter 1 was like nothing the scientists back on Earth had ever seen before. The robotnaut 1732-04 had discovered a drop ship hidden on the moon's surface, and as it approached, it caught sight of another similar object in the distance. The engineers back on Earth were stunned at the images being transmitted to them. The team analyzed the images and data over and over again, trying to make sense of what they were seeing. But the more they looked, the more questions they had. What were these objects, and where had they come from? Were they alien technology, or something else entirely? And what had happened to 1732-04, which had suddenly gone offline after transmitting the final image? The mystery of Jupiter 1 and the lost robotnaut 1732-04 still haunts the dreams of those who seek to uncover the secrets of the universe. For now, the questions remain unanswered, but the hope of one day solving the mystery drives the quest for discovery further. #space #scifi #aliens #sciencefiction #scifiart #nerdstuff #scififantasy #scifiartwork #scifibooks #scienceisawesome #scifiworld #ai #generativeart #aiartwork #midjourney #deepdream (at OUTER SPACE) https://www.instagram.com/p/CqAli_SOcjT/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Turbulent Plasma: Uncovering the Source of the Universe’s Magnetic Fields
According to findings from Columbia University, the origin of magnetic fields throughout the cosmos may be in turbulent plasma. Their research shows that these plasmas, which are prevalent in a variety of contexts, have the ability to spontaneously generate and enhance magnetic fields, illuminating the mechanism by which magnetic fields can extend over enormous distances.
Magnetic fields’ origin has long been a subject of discussion. The fresh study provides hints about their genesis
Your refrigerator isn’t the only appliance with magnets on it. Additionally magnetized are the sun, the moon, the stars, galaxies, and intergalactic space. The more areas in the universe that scientists have searched for magnetic fields, the more of them they have discovered. But the reason why that is the case and the source of those magnetic fields have remained a mystery and a focus of research.
NASA’s flying Stratospheric Observatory for Infrared Astronomy (SOFIA) observatory captured the magnetic field in the Whirlpool Galaxy (M51), which was superimposed on a Hubble telescope image of the galaxy. The picture displays infrared photos of dust particles in the M51 galaxy. Although it is also being tugged in the direction of the next galaxy to the right of the frame, its magnetic orientation mostly matches the spiral form of the galaxy. Credit: NASA, ESA, S. Beckwith (STScI), and the Hubble Heritage Team (STScI/AURA); NASA, the SOFIA scientific team, and A. Borlaff.
Magnetic fields are frequently taken for granted. Despite being all around us, we cannot see them. They span the stars, planets, and galaxies as well as sticking our magnets to the refrigerator. Scientists are still unsure of the magnetic fields’ genesis. Particularly in the early cosmos when matter was scarce and cold, how did they initially form? Recent findings illuminate how that would have been possible.
According to a recent study that was published in Physical Review Letters, a group of scientists from Columbia University conducted simulations to explain the occurrence. The experiment demonstrated that magnetic fields can be created from nothing and grown exponentially through turbulence, the random and chaotic motion of plasma particles.

Knowledge of the Magnetic Field’s Origins
A fresh study from Columbia University researchers sheds light on the origin of these fields. Models were utilized by the research team to demonstrate that magnetic fields can emerge spontaneously in turbulence.
In addition to creating new magnetic fields, their simulations demonstrated that the turbulent plasmas can also increase magnetic fields once they have already been created. This clarifies how magnetic fields that initially form on small sizes can occasionally later spread across great distances.

In the purest, vast, and remote regions of our cosmos, swirling plasma particles in tumultuous motion can spontaneously give birth to new magnetic fields, according to recent research, Sironi said.

I post a lot of stuff about the world and how unjust it is, but sometimes I forget to post anything about the nice things that still exist in the world. Like the beauty of nature. The wonders of science. All that awe-inspiring shit. @thescienceboutique, a longtime favorite maker frequently seen at @sowaboston, whipped together a bunch of new, gorgeous merch featuring the new James Webb Telescope images of galaxies and nebulae. I had to get this gorgeous barrette with the Carina Nebula on it, and when I saw this scrunchy and this gorgeous Druzy necklace, I had to get those too. If you’re a fan of anything from dinosaurs to molecules to tardigrades to Rosalind Franklin, they’ve got something for you. Science is beautiful and wondrous, and when the world seems like an unrelenting shitshow, science and nature remind us of all there is to fight for and take solace in. #science #jameswebbspacetelescope #carinanebula #localbusiness #womanownedbusiness #druzy #galaxies #spacephotography #accessories #prettythings #scienceisawesome #space #hairaccessories https://www.instagram.com/p/CgW7CR3uBeV/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

A MACROPHAGE is a type of immune cell that resides in tissue. It is a critical part of our innate immune system, and helps with normal tissue development, homeostasis and repairing damaged tissue. As can be seen, they form at the site of an infection and engulf damaged or dead cells. Your body is amazing! 🧬
Our team on the R/V Western Flyer studying the Cascadia Subduction Zone found that there's more than mud on this deep seafloor! 👀
Here's a chance to learn about these deep-sea unicellular superstars—xenophyophores. Xenophyophores are a type of foraminifera often found littering the seafloor in areas of high carbon flux, like the submarine canyon in the Cascadia Subduction Zone.
Although they are technically single-celled organisms (which we might normally expect to be too small to see with the naked eye), xenophyophores make brain-looking agglutinated tests out of cemented calcium carbonate and other sediments. Beyond looking cool, these critters act as "ecosystem engineers," increasing biodiversity by creating additional habitat for deep-sea organisms.
