A smooth galaxy, observed with the Apache Point 2.5m Telescope in the SDSS survey. It is at redshift 0.039 (lookback time 549.7 million years) with coordinates (181.96228, 42.57187). 42 volunteers classified this galaxy in Galaxy Zoo 2.

Even though Stephan’s Quintet is called a quintet, only four of the galaxies here are close together (about 290 million light-years away from Earth). The fifth and leftmost galaxy, NGC 7320, is only about 40 million light-years away: bit.ly/42MkBik πŸ”­ πŸ§ͺ

β­• A stunning cosmic lens! A distant background spiral galaxy appears to be wrapped around a closer foreground elliptical galaxy, forming an Einstein ring. Captured by the NASA/ESA/CSA James #Webb Space Telescope. Read more πŸ‘‰ www.esa.int/ESA_Multimed... πŸ”­ πŸ§ͺ β˜„οΈ

CRAZY new image from #JWST of a distant spiral wrapped around a foreground elliptical through gravitational lensing - perfectly aligned, forming a perfect Einstein ring.

An edge-on disk galaxy, observed with the Hubble Space Telescope in the COSMOS survey. It is at redshift 0.38 (lookback time 4.26 billion years) with coordinates (149.65200, 2.21004). 31 volunteers classified this galaxy in Galaxy Zoo: Hubble.

A barred spiral galaxy, observed with the Hubble Space Telescope in the AEGIS survey. It is at redshift 0.37 (lookback time 4.17 billion years) with coordinates (214.79275, 52.86437). 145 volunteers classified this galaxy in Galaxy Zoo: Hubble.

A spiral galaxy in a merger, observed with the Hubble Space Telescope in the AEGIS survey. It is at redshift 0.51 (lookback time 5.28 billion years) with coordinates (214.95475, 52.87661). 28 volunteers classified this galaxy in Galaxy Zoo: Hubble.

A merger, observed with the Hubble Space Telescope in the CANDELS-GOODS survey. It is at redshift 0.99 (lookback time 7.91 billion years) with coordinates (53.15277, -27.77528). 70 volunteers classified this galaxy in Galaxy Zoo CANDELS.

#NASAWebb was built to see the early universe. Earendel, the most distant star Webb has seen, is thought to exist about 1 billion years after the big bang. The most distant galaxy Webb has seen is even farther, around 300 million years after the big bang: bit.ly/40ZyR4L πŸ”­ πŸ§ͺ

A ring galaxy, observed with the Hubble Space Telescope in the COSMOS survey. It is at redshift unknown (lookback time unknown) with coordinates (149.72790, 2.31586). 38 volunteers classified this galaxy in Galaxy Zoo: Hubble.

This is the actual supermassive black hole at the center of our galaxy (Saggitrarius A*), observed by JWST (NIRCam) for over 9 hours. The flickers you see are solar flares on a mind-boggling scale, bright enough to shine across 26,000 light-years of space. webbtelescope.org/contents/new...
