Dr. Finkelstein captured some of the first images of our most distant known galaxies. In this episode we discuss how the data is compiled and processed and how small changes in these pipelines can alter distance estimates by orders of magnitude. We also discuss tired light and the usual explorations of paradigm shifts in science. Let us know what you think of the presentation in the comments! 00:00 Go! 00:10:16 The most distant known galaxy 00:11:24 What's calibrating the data look like? 00:16:02 How is the JWST different from the Hubble? 00:17:41 Why JWST refracting v. reflecting telescope? 00:20:18 Keeping the JWST clean 00:24:50 Stabilizing the JWST 00:28:09 Downloading data from the JWST 00:29:41 Getting on the observing schedule...public viewing time? 00:33:49 Early release survey 00:41:16 Halton Arp 00:44:30 Distance determination 00:47:53 Could the redshift distance inference be misleading? 00:52:29 Epicycles in modern astronomy? 00:55:42 You can't do astro/cosmo in a lab. 00:59:14 The Hubble Tension 01:00:56 time dilation in distant supernovae 01:05:29 Material atomics not wiring diagrams 01:08:26 Surprises at the JWST 01:12:09 What's next at the JWST? 01:13:43 Justifying astronomy to the treasury 01:19:07 Future telescopes #astronomy #jameswebbspacetelescope #physics Check our short-films channel, @DemystifySci: https://www.youtube.com/c/DemystifyingScience Join our mailing list https://bit.ly/3v3kz2S PODCAST INFO: Anastasia completed her PhD studying microbial communication at Columbia University. When not talking to brilliant people or making movies, she spends her time painting and exploring the woods. Michael Shilo also did his PhD at Columbia studying the elastic properties of molecular water. When he's not in the film studio, he's exploring sound in music. They are both freelance professors at various universities. - Blog: http://DemystifySci.com/blog - RSS: https://anchor.fm/s/2be66934/podcast/rss - Donate: https://bit.ly/3wkPqaD - Swag: https://bit.ly/2PXdC2y SOCIAL: - Discord: https://discord.gg/MJzKT8CQub - Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/groups/DemystifySci - Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/DemystifySci/ - Twitter: https://twitter.com/DemystifySci MUSIC: -Shilo Delay: https://g.co/kgs/oty671
