Since its launch in December 2021, the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) has allowed humans to get a closer look at the vast and ever-fascinating galaxies that we’re surrounded by. What we thought and what we actually saw turned out to be very different, thanks to the powerful abilities of the JWST. One such galaxy to be captured by the telescope was the IC 5332. The spiral-shaped galaxy is as fascinating, if not more, than we could’ve ever imagined.

The Galaxy

IC 5332 was typically seen by astronomers as a dusty- wispy spiral galaxy. Since the galaxy is located more than 29 million light years away from Earth, it was hard for astronomers to get a better visual – until JWST. The galaxy has an approximate diameter of 66,000 light years and faces the Earth head-on. The $10 billion telescope captured a series of great photos and gave scientists a closer look at the spiral, intricate structure. JWST used Mid-Infrared Instrument to hone in on IC 5332. The specialized instrument needs to be kept at a cold temperature to function, namely at -266 degrees Celsius. To achieve the desired temperature, engineers added an active cooling system to it.

The Two Images

The spiral galaxy was captured by two telescopes, the Hubble Space Telescope and the JWST. The Hubble used its wide field camera to capture the image, and the telescope’s visible-light and ultraviolet image show a difference between older and younger stars through colors, as well as areas of cosmic dust. JWST’s image, on the other hand, was able to get through the dust and into the galaxies’ dispersed patterns. JWST’s image has been touted as being dark and moody by NASA, showcasing the bones of the galaxy. The ESA, a collaborator on the JWST, stated that the two images have their own ways of telling us more about the galaxy’s structure and composition.

Let’s be honest — we’re all pretty busy. While most of us are stuck to our phones and are texting multiple people at once, we don’t have time to be writing out all of the words that we want to say. That’s what technology is for, right? Predictive text and text predictions have helped us out on the likes of Gmail and iOS for many years, but it seems as though Outlook Email has finally joined the club.

Predicting What We Want

Although mind reading is still way off in the technological future, there’s no doubt about the fact that technology is able to put together algorithms that suggest various possibilities for the future – and that’s where text predictions come into play. For many years, those who use various platforms such as Gmail and iOS have been able to make use of text predictions to finish off their sentences without actually finishing them themselves, and we’ve got pretty used to it. Now, a new friend has joined the gang.

Adding a New Feature

Despite the fact that they are around two years behind some of the other leaders in the internet game, Outlook Email is now adding a text prediction feature to their service. So, those who want to write an email will be able to make use of suggested words and phrases to autocomplete the rest of the item. It’s been noted that this new feature will not only work on Outlook.com but also on Outlook itself. Many people will be able to make use of this new feature, but of course, there will always be those who don’t want their next words to be predicted. Thankfully for those people, there is the option to turn off the text prediction service.

If you use Outlook Email, you should be able to embrace the text prediction world at the end of this month.
