David Butler | 2023 In Space Review

2023 was a great year with both Hubble, Webb and others making new discoveries and producing amazing images.

We start out with an update on the DART asteroid collision we covered last year. Staying inside the Solar System, we cover the Parker Solar Probe’s journey through the Suns corona.


Moving beyond the Solar System, we’ll see molecular clouds, brown dwarfs, Herbig-Haro objects, and take a deeper look into the Crab and Cassiopeia nebulas.


We’ll then do a little astrochemistry in the Iris Nebula.


Moving beyond our galaxy, we cover dwarf galaxies, a runaway black hole, a possible intermediate mass black hole, intergalactic stars, and some of the oldest galaxies ever found.


We’ll end with the first release images from ‘Euclid,” our newest space telescope.
