Hang out long enough & you start to become each other... Just ask these galaxies. In Webb’s latest image, two galaxies in the process of merging are twisting each other out of shape. Bright tendrils of star-forming regions connect their two glowing cores. These star-forming regions are particularly bright in infrared light, the wavelengths that Webb specializes in. Learn more about this pair at the link in our bio! Image description: Together, two merging galaxies form a bean-like shape just below the center of this image. The cores of the galaxies are colored blue, and one is above and to the left of the other. These two cores are surrounded by bright tendrils of coral star-forming regions, which stretch above and below. To the right of the top galactic core is a particularly bright star-formation clump with faint diffraction spikes. The lower galaxy is a mostly regular spiral shape, while the upper galaxy has been distorted into a much more condensed bun. There is also a semi-transparent arc of pale dust above both merging galaxies. The background is black, and many tiny distant galaxies dot the scene. Credit: ESA/Webb, NASA & CSA, L. Armus, A.
