It’s oh-so-easy to be absolutely mesmerized by these spiral galaxies. Follow their clearly defined arms, which are brimming with stars, to their centers, where there may be old star clusters and – sometimes – active supermassive black holes. Only NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope can deliver highly detailed scenes of nearby galaxies in a combination […]

Researchers are studying the images to uncover the origins and evolution of the intricate structures

New snaps of outer space released on Monday show the “mind-blowing” detail of 19 spiral galaxies near our Milky Way that were captured by the James Webb Space Telescope thanks to the work of more than 150 astronomers across the globe.

The stars, dust, and gas swirling around black holes could reveal the origin of some our universe’s most intricate structures.

A number of new and mesmerising images by the James Webb Space Telescope opened new doors of understanding for scientists about the life cycle of stars as the photographs of 19 spiraling galaxies...

Astronomers have used the James Webb Space Telescope to take astonishingly detailed images of spiral galaxies, revealing how and where they spark star formation

Hopkins research scientist David Thilker explains how studying this treasure trove of images can help shed light on the star formation process

Reminiscent of the Eye of Sauron and psychedelic whirlpools, the new images reveal never-before-seen details of galaxies.

The James Webb Space Telescope captured incredibly detailed and beautiful photos of 19 nearby spiral galaxies.

The images were made public on Monday by a team of scientists involved in a project called Physics at High Angular resolution in Nearby GalaxieS (PHANGS) that operates across several major astronomical observatories. The James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) was launched in 2021 and began collecting data in 2022, reshaping the understanding of the early universe while taking wondrous pictures of the cosmos. The Hubble Space Telescope, launched in 1990 and still operational, has examined it primari...
