The telescope has captured images of distant space. These show how this galaxy has gone through changes over billions of years. The images reveal that the Cartwheel Galaxy is undergoing changes. Astronomers say that this galaxy was once a spiral like the Milky Way, but it has changed due to collisions with smaller galaxies. These changes will continue in the future.
The James Webb Telescope, located about 1.5 million kilometers from Earth, has surprised the world with many pictures since July 12. Using its Near-Infrared Camera (NIRCam), it has captured some of the best pictures of distant space. The US space agency NASA has said that this galaxy shows many different blue dots, which are either stars or pockets associated with the formation of stars. In addition, the Webb Telescope’s Mid-Infrared Instrument (MIRI) has revealed that silicate dust is also present in this galaxy in addition to hydrocarbons and other chemical compounds.
It is worth noting that on July 12 last month, the first picture taken from this telescope was revealed to the world. In this the distant universe was shown in the best way. This galaxy cluster, named SMACS 0723, was known as the first deep field of the James Webb Telescope. NASA launched this telescope in December last year. The construction of James Web cost $10 billion (about Rs 75,330 crore). Till now this telescope was setting itself in space. This work has now been completed.
