NASA releases deepest ever image of the universe

Published

President Joe Biden has revealed the highly anticipated image taken by the James Webb Space Telescope

The first full-colour image from NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope have been revealed.

US President Joe Biden released the image at an event at the White House.

At the event President Biden said, “we can see possibilities no one has ever seen before. We can go places no one has ever gone before.”

“These images are going to remind the world that America can do big things, and remind the American people – especially our children – that there’s nothing beyond our capacity,”

According to NASA Administrator, Bill Nelson, “this image covers a patch of sky approximately the size of a grain of sand held at arm’s length.”

The image shares thousands of galaxies once invisible to us, making it “the deepest and sharpest infrared image of the distant universe, so far,” says Nelson.

“Webb is just the start of what we can accomplish in the future when we work together for the benefit of humanity.”

Webb senior project scientist, John Mather, says the record-setting image will help answer questions like “what happened after the big bang?” 

He says it will also help us understand how the expanding universe made black holes, galaxies, stars, planets and people.

Astronomers see everything twice: first with pictures, and then with imagination and calculation. But there’s something out there that we’ve never imagined, and I will be as amazed as you are when we find it.”

Webb’s image upstages the photograph of the same galaxy, SMACS 0723, taken by the Hubble telescope which captured the furthest star ever observed. Read more.

What Australia can learn from NZ’s supermarket inquiry

Published

on

Coles and Woolworths, two of Australia’s largest supermarket chains, are about to face a Senate inquiry that aims to scrutinise their market dominance and business practices.

The inquiry’s parallels with a past New Zealand investigation highlight the growing concern over the duopoly’s impact on consumers and smaller businesses.

The Senate inquiry, set to begin next month, comes as a response to mounting public pressure and allegations of anti-competitive behavior in the grocery sector.

New Zealand example

Similar concerns led New Zealand to conduct its own inquiry into the supermarket industry back in 2019, resulting in recommendations for increased regulation and transparency.

The central question here is whether Coles and Woolworths wield too much power in the Australian market, potentially stifling competition and limiting choices for consumers.

With the New Zealand example as a cautionary tale, many are wondering if this inquiry will result in meaningful changes to the Australian grocery landscape.

Elon Musk has thrown a verbal jab at former South Carolina Governor Nikki Haley, declaring her political campaign as “dead” on X.

The unexpected comment from the Tesla and SpaceX CEO has ignited a new wave of discussion within the political sphere, leaving many wondering about the implications for Haley’s political future.

In a tweet that garnered significant attention, Musk criticized Haley’s recent policy stance, writing, “Nikki Haley’s campaign is dead on arrival if she continues to ignore the urgency of climate change.

We need leaders who prioritize the planet’s future.” The tech mogul’s remarks come as Haley, a prominent Republican figure, has been exploring the possibility of running for president in the upcoming election cycle.

Musk’s statement has reignited the debate over climate change within the Republican Party, with many conservatives emphasizing economic interests over environmental concerns.

This raises questions about whether Musk’s endorsement or critique could influence the GOP’s stance on climate issues and potentially impact the 2024 presidential race.
