Super exited to see that Dr Patrick Kavanagh at #MaynoothUniversity co-authored a new paper giving us an incredible view of a #protostellar #jet from HH 211 with #NIRCam! The image is absolutely stunning.
What's even more wild is that this appears to show the origin of the "Green Fuzzies" that we saw back in the day with Spitzer. A bit more puzzling is the fact that the flow is almost completely molecular, which is unexpected!
