Viruses are everywhere. Some viruses can cause illness in humans, which has led to people often viewing them as threats. But most viruses are harmless to humans. Many viruses target microbes instead of humans. These viruses likely play essential roles in maintaining a healthy balance in ecosystems by preventing overpopulation of their target microbes. Yet, scientists know very little about most viruses and their role in ecosystems.

The NASA/ESA/CSA James Webb Space Telescope has captured a beautiful juxtaposition of the nearby protostellar outflow known as Herbig-Haro 49/50 with a perfectly positioned, more distant spiral galaxy. Due to the close proximity of this Herbig-Haro object to Earth, this new composite infrared image of the outflow from a young star allows researchers to examine details on small spatial scales like never before. With Webb, we can better understand how the jet activity associated with the formation of young stars can affect the environment surrounding them.

People generally try to make other people feel good about themselves, but not when they dislike them.
