Epsilon Indi Ab: It is a Jupiter-like exoplanet located 12 light-years away from Earth. It is also known to be one of the coldest planets. This image showcases the formation of a protostar and was captured when it was an hourglass-shaped cloud of gas.

The James Webb Space Telescope has imaged a collision between two galaxies that appears to have created a beaming smile in space.

The James Webb Space Telescope has captured an image of a collision between a spiral galaxy and an elliptical galaxy. Together, they form a system known as Arp 107. Although this object had been studied before,

Now, the powerful space telescope has pushed it to the edge closer to home in our very own galaxy, the Milky Way. A team of astronomers has pointed the JWST at the outskirts of the Milky Way, observing a region scientists call the "Extreme Outer Galaxy."

Right now, it looks like cosmology is at a tipping point. Will the James Webb telescope resolve the issue by revealing new physics?

The James Webb Space Telescope has recorded spectacular images of star formation in the extreme outer reaches of the Milky Way. Here's a look.

New infrared image highlights star formation triggered by merger-in-progress. Arp 107, a pair of interacting galaxies, shines brightly in high-resolution infrared light. A collision, which occurred hundreds of millions ago,

Astronomers pointed the powerful James Webb Space Telescope at a distant zone dubbed the "Extreme Outer Galaxy," and zoomed in on dense cosmic clouds containing clusters of stars. In unprecedented resolution of this region, they spotted vibrant star formation, and potent jets of material ejecting from these hot objects.
