NASA's Webb Reveals Secrets of the 'Cosmic Tornado'
The James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) has solved the 19-year mystery of the "Cosmic Tornado," a strange, twisteresque object some 630 light years from Earth. First seen by the Spitzer Space Telescope in 2006,
Webb reveals that's no star over there. It's an entire freaking galaxy.
Webb's penetrating infrared gaze has now revealed the true identity of the glow as a face-on, distant spiral galaxy. It has a protruding central bulge, shown in blue, where older stars reside. The bulge also seems to have side lobes, suggesting that this could be a barred spiral galaxy like the Milky Way.
Webb Space Telescope captures a star in the making and a galaxy far, far away
The Webb Space Telescope has captured a plume of gas and dust streaming from a star in the making, with a spiral galaxy as a stunning backdrop. The composite image makes it look as though the overflow of stellar material is the billowing contrail of a rocket on its way to the galaxy.
