It's a stunner – the latest image from JWST is a team effort with the Hubble Space Telescope, providing a detailed look at a pair of distant galaxies
. “Although the two foreground galaxies are relatively close astronomically speaking, they are not actively interacting.”Dust in galaxies is key to the formation of new stars and planets, so tracing its presence may help us understand how and where those objects form. Pinning down where the dust is now can also help reveal the history of a galaxy.
While the two foreground galaxies are attention-grabbing, they are not the only interesting part of this image. Near the heart of the elliptical galaxy, there are two faint red arcs.
