A Wreath of Star Formation in Galaxy NGC 7469 | James Webb Space Telescope Happy Holidays from FriendsofNASA.org: This image is dominated by NGC 7469, a luminous, face-on spiral galaxy approximately 90,000 light-years in diameter that lies roughly 220 million light-years from Earth in the constellation Pegasus. Its companion galaxy IC 5283 is partly visible in the lower left portion of this image. Image Description: This image shows a spiral galaxy that is dominated by a bright central region. T

Spiral galaxy NGC 3256 is a reminder that we are shaped by those we meet. This Milky Way-sized galaxy is the result of two spiral galaxies that encountered each other approximately 500 million years ago. Due to their collision and gradual merging, this distorted galaxy is undergoing a burst of star formation. The Hubble Space Telescope’s visible-light image showcases the galaxy’s bright white core and dense dust, seen as dark brown threads that follow the counterclockwise direction of its arms.
