A space telescope monitors “spiral arms” 32 million light-years away

The James Webb Space Telescope captured new details of a galaxy known as “Phantom” that appeared to be spirally shaped in stunning images published by the American and European space agencies (NASA).
The new images allow, according to the “Al-Hurra” website, to see the details of the M74 galaxy called “Phantom”, which is 32 million light-years away from Earth, and a vortex appears in the middle of a blue circle.
The images provided the MIRI instrument that studies mid-infrared, a European-American collaboration and part of a project to understand the early stages of star formation.
“The telescope’s precise view revealed fine filaments of gas and dust in the massive spiral arms that extend from the image center to the outside,” NASA said.
The European Space Agency stated that the famous space telescope “Hubble”, which was launched in 1990 and is still in service, had previously observed this galaxy.
While James Webb is best at observing infrared wavelengths of light, Hubble has particularly sharp vision at ultraviolet and visible wavelengths, according to the European agency.
NASA released the first high-resolution images of James Webb last July.
Hubble orbits the Earth, but James Webb orbits the Sun, regarding 1.5 million kilometers from Earth. James Webb is “the most advanced space telescope of its kind” and was sent into space regarding 7 months ago.
And a historic event occurred when the telescope took the first image showing the galaxy cluster “SMACS 0723” is the “deepest and clearest” of the universe ever captured in infrared.
And equipped “James Webb” with enough fuel to make it work for 20 years, and thus astronomers expect to make new discoveries thanks to it.
And the space telescope detected for the first time the presence of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere of an exoplanet, that is, a planet outside the solar system that includes Earth, a discovery that shows its enormous capabilities and motivates scientists to follow up on the additional data that it will provide in this regard.
He showed details of Jupiter, as never before, in images that will help scientists understand what is happening on this planet.
