Webb Spotlights Gravitational Arcs in ‘El Gordo’ Galaxy Cluster

James Webb Space TelescopeEnglish • 1 year ago

A new image of the galaxy cluster known as “El Gordo” is revealing distant and dusty objects never seen before, and providing a bounty of fresh science. The infrared image, taken by NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope, displays a variety of unusual, distorted background galaxies that were only hinted at in previous Hubble Space Telescope images.
