ufofeed.com/161505/astronomers Astronomers using the James Webb Space Telescope have captured the most detailed look yet at how galaxies formed just a few hundred million years after the Big Bang – and found they were far more chaotic and messy than those we see today. #Astrobiology #Astrophysics #Cosmology #PlanetaryScience #Space #SpaceExploration

NOIRLab image of the week

The galaxy cluster Abell 3754 is captured here by the 570-megapixel Department of Energy-fabricated Dark Energy Camera (DECam) on the Víctor M. Blanco 4-meter Telescope, one of around 40 telescopes at the U.S. National Science Foundation Cerro Tololo Inter-American Observatory (CTIO) in Chile, a Program of NSF NOIRLab. 

Located about 200 million light-years away, Abell 3754 is a gravitationally-bound group of hundreds of galaxies. Galaxy clusters are the second-largest-scale structures known in the Universe, but even at their massive scale these galaxies are never all that far from each other. In the top left, the large galaxy IC 4329, surrounded by rings of light, shows evidence of a past cosmic collision. The spread-out fragments of illuminated blue and white gas on the right side of the image are evidence of a similar clash with the galaxy NGC 5291 (yellow color). If you look closely, you can see more evidence of gravitationally interacting galaxies.

Mark Kelly: “This is the dumbest plan I’ve ever heard in nearly five years in the United States Senate.” #Astrobiology #Astrophysics #Cosmology #PlanetaryScience #Space #SpaceExploration
