Webb Telescope Unveils Rare Cosmic ‘Question Mark’ in Distant Galaxy

The galaxy cluster MACS-J0417.5-1154 is so massive that it bends the fabric of space-time. This causes the appearance of galaxies behind it to be distorted, an effect known as gravitational lensing. This natural phenomenon magnifies distant galaxies and can also make them appear in an image multiple times, as NASA's James Webb Space Telescope has observed. In this image, two distant, interacting galaxies - a face-on spiral and a dusty red galaxy seen from the side - appear multiple times, tracing a familiar shape across the sky. The fact that these galaxies are actively forming stars and that the face-on galaxy's spiral shap... </div> <div class= Read Entire Article
