We worked with Stoke to refine their identity system, craft new renders for their Nova Pathfinder and Block 2 platforms, and help launch the new Stoke website. Incredible things on (and above) the horizon for Stoke. More at the link. (2/2) stokespace.com/

Seeing double… or quadruple! 👀 In this Webb image of galaxy cluster MACS J0454.1-0300, gravitational lensing shows us 4 or more images of the same galaxy. This is the first time researchers have spotted this more than once in the same galaxy cluster! esawebb.org/images/potm2609a…
