7 Beautiful Images Of Galaxies, Star Clusters And Deep Space Shared By NASA

The Phantom Galaxy

The James Webb Space Telescope captured a breathtaking image of M74, revealing its intricate spiral arms, gas and dust filaments, and the nuclear star cluster at its center.

Head In The Clouds

Hubble captured part of the Small Magellanic Cloud, a dwarf galaxy 200,000 light-years away. It pairs with the Large Magellanic Cloud, visible from the southern hemisphere.

Kohoutek 4-55

Hubble's image of Kohoutek 4-55, a planetary nebula in Cygnus, shows swirling clouds ejected by a dying star. It resembles a cosmic portal, located 4,600 light-years away.

Galaxy LEDA 1313424

LEDA 1313424, also known as the Bullseye, is a massive galaxy with nine rings formed after a blue dwarf galaxy collided with its core 50 million years ago.

Leaving On A Jet

Hubble captured the massive protostellar jet launched by a B-type star in the G35.2-0.7N region, 7,200 light-years away. This hotbed of star formation creates a stunning light show.

Red Dwarf Star

A planet orbiting a red dwarf star is experiencing intense atmospheric changes. The star’s energy is evaporating its hydrogen atmosphere, causing it to dissipate.

UGC 3478

UGC 3478, a spiral galaxy, features a bright active galactic nucleus (AGN)—a growing supermassive black hole at its center.
