James Webb Space Telescope spots record-breaking collection of stars in far-flung galaxy
"I never dreamed of Webb seeing them in such large numbers."
James Webb telescope spies record-breaking hoard of stars hiding in a warped 'dragon' galaxy
Photos from the James Webb Space Telescope have revealed more than 40 stars within the gravitationally lensed "Dragon Arc" galaxy, 6.5 billion light-years from Earth. It is the largest group of individually imaged stars ever seen at such a distance.

James Webb Space Telescope quiz: How well do you know the world's most powerful telescope?
The James Webb Space Telescope can look deeper (and earlier) into the cosmos than any telescope before it. How much do you know about this wonder of technology and its incredible findings?
8 mesmerising images of space shared by NASA James Webb Space Telescope
NGC 604, a vibrant star-forming region, contains over 200 of the hottest and most massive stars, primarily B-type and O-type, all in the early stages of their lifespans. Webb's image of NGC 1087 showcases a stunning face-on spiral galaxy with a densely packed structure radiating from its vibrant core.
James Webb Space Telescope: Breathtaking 'Face-On' Views Of 19 Spiral Galaxies
The James Webb Space Telescope has captured 19 spiral galaxies "face-on" in near- and mid-infrared. The images "show stars, gas, and dust on the smallest scales ever observed beyond our own galaxy," according to NASA/ESA.
James Webb Telescope Uses Cosmic “Magnifying glass” to Detect Stars 6.5 Billion Light-Years Away
An international team of astronomers has detected over 40 individual stars in a galaxy located 6.5 billion light-years away. The discovery of more than 40 stars in a single galaxy is unprecedented, as prior observations typically revealed only one or two such stars per galaxy.
Hidden Stars Halfway Across the Universe: The Webb Telescope’s Stunning Discovery
Over 40 stars in a galaxy billions of light-years away were photographed, offering a glimpse into an era when the universe ...
