<p><strong>Hosted by Tony Darnell.</strong></p> <p><strong>From August 17, 2024.</strong></p> <p>An international team of astronomers has directly imaged this exoplanet, one of the coldest ever seen.  The team observed Epsilon Indi Ab using the coronagraph on Webb's Mid-Infrared Instrument. Only a few tens of exoplanets have ever been directly imaged by space- and ground-based observatories.  These observations are ushering in a completely new era in exoplanet research.</p> <p> </p> <p>We've added a new way to donate to 365 Days of Astronomy to support editing, hosting, and production costs.<span class= "Apple-converted-space"> </span></p> <p>Just visit: <a href= "https://www.patreon.com/365DaysOfAstronomy">https://www.patreon.com/365DaysOfAstronomy</a> and donate as much as you can!</p> <p>Share the podcast with your friends and send the Patreon link to them too!<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></p> <p>Every bit helps!
