They may look like splotches to you, but these are Direct Photo Images of planets orbiting ANOTHER STAR. (Credit to NASA)
These images are the coolest thing I've seen in my life.
Normally we can only detect 'exoplanets' like these by staring at a single star for a long, long time, and making a bunch of charts and extrapolating from the data.
The James Webb space telescope is powerful enough that it could actually directly take pictures of these distant worlds, and it just gave us our first look. The first picture captures planets around star HR 8799, around 130 light-years away from the sun, and the second shows a planet around star 51 Eridani around 97 light-years away.
The link to the article is in the credit.
On the Unique Color of Megabreccias
This image was a long-delayed follow up to another observation we acquired in 2010 to get unique color coverage of these beautifully exposed and sharp-edged megabreccias in Nili Fossae. The breccias appear be layered and have structure. (Enhanced color cutout is less than 1 km across.)
