James Webb and Hubble Telescopes Discover 40 Stars in Galaxy 6.5 Billion Light-Years Away in Abell 370 Supercluster
Jan 11, 2025, 04:10 PM
Astronomers utilizing the James Webb Space Telescope have made a groundbreaking discovery by observing over 40 individual stars in a galaxy located 6.5 billion light-years from Earth, specifically in the Abell 370 supercluster. This marks the first time such a large number of individual stars have been detected at this distance. Additionally, the Hubble Space Telescope has provided new images of various celestial phenomena, including a tiny patch of sky in the Hydra constellation and a stunning view of the barred spiral galaxy NGC 1365, which spans 300,000 light-years and is situated 74 million light-years away. Both telescopes have collaborated to capture images of colliding spiral galaxies IC 2163 and NGC 2207, located approximately 80 million light-years away in the constellation Canis Major. These advancements highlight the capabilities of modern telescopes in exploring the distant universe.
