Zoom into NGC 5068 🔍 #shorts
This video takes the viewers on a journey to the barred spiral galaxy NGC 5068, whose bright central bar is visible in the upper left of this image. NGC 5068 lies around 17 million light-years from Earth in the constellation Virgo.
With its ability to peer through the gas and dust enshrouding newborn stars, the NASA/ESA/CSA James Webb Space Telescope is the perfect telescope to explore the processes governing star formation. Stars and planetary systems are born amongst swirling clouds of gas and dust that are opaque to visible-light observatories like Hubble or the VLT. The keen vision at infrared wavelengths of two of Webb’s instruments — MIRI and NIRCam — allowed astronomers to see right through the gargantuan clouds of dust in NGC 5068 and capture the processes of star formation as they happened. This image combines the capabilities of these two instruments, providing a truly unique look at the composition of NGC 5068.

Thanks🙏
Sız deyin bakim alemi kim kusursuz yarattı
NOS ADENTRAMOS EN EL ESPACIO PROFUNDO INCREIBLE Y NOS ENCONYRAMOS ÑOOOOSSSSS
Vertigineux
C'est sans fin…….😮
Allah 😢
Radiante
What I find most fascinating is that each point of light, on average, is 4 light years (24 trillion) miles)apart
What I can sa glory be to God
22 million light years away
