Webb Captures the Sombrero Galaxy in a New Light
NASA has made a remarkable discovery while flying over the arctic ice in Greenland during an April 2024 survey. The radar instrument onboard NASA's Gulfstream III aircraft spotted an abandoned "city under the ice," a relic of the Cold War that was once used as a military base by the US Army Corps of […]
Space scientists capture startling new image of Sombrero galaxy
A comparison with a 2010 visible light image from the NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope highlights the large and extended glow of the central bulge of stars.ESA has remarked, "Both the Webb and Hubble images resolve the clumpy nature of the dust that makes up the Sombrero galaxy's outer ring.
Webb telescope clears the haze around a stunning galactic icon
Webb's ability to see through hazy obstacles is demonstrated here with the Sombrero, aka Messier 104, a nearly edge-on spiral galaxy about 30 million light-years from Earth in the constellation Virgo. The galaxy was discovered in 1781 by the French comet hunter Pierre Méchain, one of renowned astronomer Charles Messier’s colleagues.

Webb telescope, with help of Mid-Infrared Instrument, captured high-resolution mid-infrared image of galaxy, also known as Messier 104, says NASA
The Sombrero Galaxy doffs its cap to the power of JWST
The James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) shows off its infrared capabilities once again in new imaging of the well-known Sombrero Galaxy, otherwise known as Messier 104. By resolving the thickly textured dust clouds in the outer disk and toning down the brilliant central star glow, JWST shows a whole new side of the famous galaxy.
Hats Off to NASA’s Webb: Sombrero Galaxy Dazzles in New Image
