Astronomers using the James Webb Space Telescope have spotted a rare galaxy at the dawn of time that may be a "missing link" between the oldest generation of stars and the ones we see near Earth.

Webb has been able to observe some of the oldest, faintest light in existence, including this strange galaxy, GS-NDG-9422, as it existed 1 billion years after the Big Bang. For perspective, the universe’s age is estimated to be somewhere in the neighborhood of 13.8 billion years.

Serpens Nebula: This nebula harbours several newborn stars which only 100000 years old. This star-forming region is located 1300 light-years from Earth. Galactic treasury: This is the image of spiral galaxy NGC 1559 located 35 million light-years away from the Earth.

The James Webb Space Telescope has imaged a collision between two galaxies that appears to have created a beaming smile in space.

The James Webb Space Telescope has taken things to the extreme, studying the outer edge of our own galaxy, the Milky Way and producing a stunning new image.

The galactic duo lies about 465 million light-years from Earth. The post James Webb Space Telescope captures ‘cosmic smile’ of galaxies colliding appeared first on Talker.

NASA, ESA, CSA, STScI Two galaxies are converging in the constellation Leo Minor, and based on a new image from NASA's James Webb Space Telescope, they're pretty pleased with their merger-in-progress.
