NASA Releases New Images of Phantom Galaxy

NASA has just released images taken by the Hubble Telescope of the Phantom Galaxy. The Hubble Telescope is a part of the James Webb Telescope, which has been capturing new images of ours and surrounding solar systems and sending them back to Earth.

The Phantom Galaxy is a spiral of solar systems that are 32 million lightyears from Earth, and located in the galaxy Pisces. The Phantom Galaxy has another name, M74, and has well defined arms. The James Webb Telescope was also able to capture a look at the galaxy’s center at a nuclear star cluster. The Webb Telescope has helped scientists tremendously in developing an understanding of the Phantom Galaxy, but also even other planets in our solar system.
