space telescope James Webb shared an impressive image of the call ‘ghost galaxy’ M74.

This star has an interesting spiral shape and is being studied by the European Space Agency (ESA).

ghost galaxy

“ghost galaxy” It is located 32 million light-years from Earth, in the constellation Pisces.

In addition to its preferred location, which is “in front” of our planet, it has spiral arms that attract scientists: unlike other galaxies, its shape is clear and defined.

James Webb was able to image it with his Mid-InfraRed (MIRI) instrument, which covers wavelengths from 5 to 28 microns (this allows the instrument to capture wide-angle, broadband images of distant galaxies, star formation, and comets, which are also hard to see).

Join your predecessor

James Webb compared his image with Hubble, leaving us with a unique combination.

Images of M74 previously taken by the space telescope Hubble they show bright regions of star formation called HII regions. Researchers THIS IS they superimposed data from the current telescope on these images to get new details.

Similar information recently found in James Webb It will also help astronomers identify areas of early formation in other galaxies, measure the mass and age of star clusters, and learn more about dust drifting through space. THIS IS on your website.
