THIS IS NOT A DRILL PEOPLE!!!

IT'S TRUE!!!

New Image from James Webb Space Telescope (JWST).

(2023, but they posted it today on the last leap year of February)

This time, it's a star that they named after our favorite Kaiju: Mothra!

One object stood out in this field: a monstrously bright star nicknamed “Mothra,” located in a galaxy that existed 3 billion years after the big bang. This star has been magnified by the gravity of the galaxy cluster — plus a mystery object — by a factor of at least 4,000 times!

See the full image and description here!

And on Instagram!
