Astronomers find an enigmatic source that is most likely a Little Red Dot in formation

Astronomers have, for the first time, found a source in the process of becoming a Little Red Dot, using the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST). Little Red Dots are likely early galaxies and some of the most intriguing objects found with JWST at high redshifts. The team, led by Karina Caputi of the University of Groningen in the Netherlands, announced the detection at the annual meeting of the European Astronomical Society (EAS 2026) in Lausanne, Switzerland. The result has been accepted for publication in The Astrophysical Journal. The paper is available on the arXiv preprint server.

Jellyfish reveal rapid repair system behind scar-free healing

A decade ago this summer, at the Marine Biological Laboratory, Jocelyn Malamy watched jellyfish cells "walk" toward each other to close a wound for the first time. An associate professor of molecular genetics and cell biology at the University of Chicago, Malamy had received transparent, dime-sized medusae of the species Clytia hemisphaerica from Evelyn Houliston's lab at the Marine Observatoire in Villefranche.

Chandra releases ‘red, white, and blue’ universe for US 250th

In celebration of the 250th birthday of the United States, NASA has unveiled four cosmic images from its Chandra X-ray Observatory, rendered in red, white and blue, that represent the wonders of the universe the agency explores. The images are accompanied by a trio of new sonifications—a technique that translates astronomical data into sound.
