STEM Saturday Post Promotion #22: Here's how stellar dust is similar to baked bread and tree rings

in Popular STEM2 years ago (edited)

In The amazing rings captured by the James Webb, @jorgebgt writes about massive dust rings that were photographed by the James Webb Space Telescope. Visually, these rings resemble the growth rings that we see in trees, and the process that forms them has similarities to the baking of bread. Click through to learn more about it.


Welcome to our 22nd STEM Saturday post promotion on the Steem blockchain. In celebration of the occasion, I have once again promoted a Popular STEM post to the top of the /promoted list.

This marks the twenty-second consecutive Saturday that our community has held the top of the /promoted page.

As previously announced, the promoted post will be pinned in our community, and it will remain pinned until payout time or until it drops out of the top-2 promoted posts for our community.

The Post

This week's promoted post is The amazing rings captured by the James Webb. from @jorgebgt.

As with prior weeks, the post was passed through three separate online plagiarism checks before promotion.

Here is the post at the top of /promoted:

Promotion Cost

In order to promote the post, I burned 0.101 SBD (equivalent to about 0.454 STEEM) by sending it to @null with the memo field set to: @jorgebgt/the-amazing-rings-captured-by-the-james-webb.

About STEM Saturday



If members would like to have your own STEM content considered for future promotions, please come join us and start contributing. I don't know how long I'll be continuing the tradition, but while I do, here are the minimum requirements for consideration (subject to change without notice ;-).

  1. Original, plagiarism-free content
  2. Minimum word count: currently 300 words, but this may be adjusted.
  3. The content must not be cross-posted on other web sites or blockchains. Correct use of the #steemexclusive tag is encouraged.
  4. English language. (sorry, it's the only one I know)
  5. Because a post leaves /promoted at payout time, posts created shortly before STEM Saturday may be more likely to be chosen than older posts.

All community members are invited to create original and exclusive content that can be considered for future promotions.


Please help grow the science & technology audience on the Steem blockchain by following the Science and Technology on the Social Blockchain Facebook page then liking & sharing our links!

What an interesting post you mentioned. The theme of space and sky is very interesting. This week, all residents of our city could watch the solar eclipse. It's beautiful!

Watching the cosmos is a pleasure. I was pleased to read the post that you chose to promote. I'm already wondering what will happen next week.

Congratulations to @jorgebgt

Thank you!
