Sea levels around the world are rising – and at an accelerating rate – as a result of human-caused global warming. 🌊
Global sea levels have risen about 10 centimeters from 1993 to 2022, as seen in this

Hey
@NASASolarSystem
, ready for your close-up? As part of Webb’s prep for science, we tested how the telescope tracks solar system objects like Jupiter. Webb worked better than expected, and even caught Jupiter’s moon Europa:
Hundreds of new stars.
Examples of bubbles and jets created by newborn stars.
Galaxies lurking in the background.
