Political map of India around 590. The Chalukyas are the dominant dynasty in the Deccan. The Late Guptas reach their zenith, soon to be brought to a halt (why is unclear - maybe by incursions of the Chalukya king Kirtivarman I, or by king Shashanka of Gauda). Meanwhile, the Vardhanas become a regional player as well.

NASA's Webb Sheds Light on Galaxy Evolution, Black Holes
Status: 1st Image Released 7/12/22 ~11:13am
Stephan's Quintet, a visual grouping of five galaxies, is best known for being prominently featured in the holiday classic film, “It’s a Wonderful Life.” Today, NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope reveals Stephan’s Quintet in a new light. This enormous mosaic is Webb’s largest image to date, covering about one-fifth of the Moon’s diameter. It contains over 150 million pixels and is constructed from almost 1,000 separate image files. The information from Webb provides new insights into how galactic interactions may have driven galaxy evolution in the early universe.
With its powerful, infrared vision and extremely high spatial resolution, Webb shows never-before-seen details in this galaxy group. Sparkling clusters of millions of young stars and starburst regions of fresh star birth grace the image. Sweeping tails of gas, dust and stars are being pulled from several of the galaxies due to gravitational interactions. Most dramatically, Webb captures huge shock waves as one of the galaxies, NGC 7318B, smashes through the cluster.

NASA's Webb Reveals Cosmic Cliffs, Glittering Landscape of Star Birth
Status: 1st Image Released 7/12/22 ~11:22am
This landscape of 'mountains' and 'valleys' speckled with glittering stars is actually the edge of a nearby, young, star-forming region called NGC 3324 in the Carina Nebula. Captured in infrared light by NASA's new James Webb Space Telescope, this image reveals for the first time previously invisible areas of star birth.
Called the Cosmic Cliffs, Webb's seemingly three-dimensional picture looks like craggy mountains on a moonlit evening. In reality, it is the edge of the giant, gaseous cavity within NGC 3324, and the tallest 'peaks' in this image are about 7 light-years high. The cavernous area has been carved from the nebula by the intense ultraviolet radiation and stellar winds from extremely massive, hot, young stars located in the center of the bubble, above the area shown in this image.

Raleigh, N.C. — For many people, it wouldn’t be Christmas without the 1946 classic movie "It’s a Wonderful Life."
The beloved holiday film was directed, produced and financed by Frank Capra, who often called it the favorite of all the films he created, and he even screened it for family each holiday season. The film was selected for preservation by the Library of Congress and it topped the American Film Institute's list of most inspirational films
But it was a box office flop, losing $525,000 when it was first released, and the financial losses also took down Capra’s Liberty Films. Paramount Pictures bought the faltering film company before selling it, along with most of Paramount’s pre-1950 film catalog, to Republic Pictures.
Capra's box office flop might have remained in obscurity if not for a clerical blunder.
The film entered the public domain in 1974 when Republic forgot to file paperwork to extend the initial copyright. TV networks responded by airing the film regularly each holiday season, building an audience for the once obscure film.
That all changed with the 1990 U.S. Supreme Court ruling which tied the rights to stories and movies together.
Republic still owned the copyright to the original story, enabling the company to regain control over the film and sign a long-term deal with NBC, which was given the exclusive broadcast rights in 1994.
The fictional winter wonderland of Bedford Falls was shot during 90-degree days in July and April 1947 on RKO Picture’s Ranch. Real snow wouldn't work and something better was needed than the asbestos used in films like Holiday Inn.
Russell M. Shearman and the RKO special effects department created a new method which turned fire fighting foam and a bit of sugar into falling snow. Shearman was awarded a patent and a technical achievement Oscar for the invention.
Galactic angels
Just two minutes into the film, prayers for George Bailey are heard by angels represented by a real group of galaxies known as Stephan’s Quintet, named for Edouard Stephan who discovered them in 1877.
The Senior Angel is played by the galaxy known to astronomers as NGC 7318 and the angel Joseph is NGC 7320.
In reality they are anything but angelic....

from https://www.nasa.gov/feature/goddard/2022/webb-captures-stellar-gymnastics-in-the-cartwheel-galaxy August 2, 2022 - A large pink, speckled galaxy resembling a wheel with with a small, inner oval, with dusty blue in between on the right, with two smaller spiral galaxies about the same size to the left against a black background.
Credits: NASA, ESA, CSA, STScI - NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope has peered into the chaos of the Cartwheel Galaxy, revealing new details about star formation and the galaxy’s central black hole. Webb’s powerful infrared gaze produced this detailed image of the Cartwheel and two smaller companion galaxies against a backdrop of many other galaxies. This image provides a new view of how the Cartwheel Galaxy has changed over billions of years.
The Cartwheel Galaxy, located about 500 million light-years away in the Sculptor constellation, is a rare sight. Its appearance, much like that of the wheel of a wagon, is the result of an intense event – a high-speed collision between a large spiral galaxy and a smaller galaxy not visible in this image. Collisions of galactic proportions cause a cascade of different, smaller events between the galaxies involved; the Cartwheel is no exception.
The collision most notably affected the galaxy’s shape and structure. The Cartwheel Galaxy sports two rings — a bright inner ring and a surrounding, colorful ring. These two rings expand outwards from the center of the collision, like ripples in a pond after a stone is tossed into it. Because of these distinctive features, astronomers call this a “ring galaxy,” a structure less common than spiral galaxies like our Milky Way.
The bright core contains a tremendous amount of hot dust with the brightest areas being the home to gigantic young star clusters. On the other hand, the outer ring, which has expanded for about 440 million years, is dominated by star formation and supernovas. As this ring expands, it plows into surrounding gas and triggers star formation.
Other telescopes, including the Hubble Space Telescope, have previously examined the Cartwheel. But the dramatic galaxy has been shrouded in mystery – perhaps literally, given the amount of dust that obscures the view. Webb, with its ability to detect infrared light, now uncovers new insights into the nature of the Cartwheel.

from https://www.nasa.gov/feature/goddard/2022/webb-captures-stellar-gymnastics-in-the-cartwheel-galaxy August 2, 2022 - This image from Webb’s Mid-Infrared Instrument (MIRI) shows a group of galaxies, including a large distorted ring-shaped galaxy known as the Cartwheel. The Cartwheel Galaxy, located 500 million light-years away in the Sculptor constellation, is composed of a bright inner ring and an active outer ring. While this outer ring has a lot of star formation, the dusty area in between reveals many stars and star clusters.
