The James Webb Space Telescope, which is our eyes and ears in the universe and has captured many fascinating images since its inception, galaxies, star formation and the origin of the universe keeps sending images that will help us understand.

As the latest images In the future, our galaxy will also be in it. reveals fascinating details about a process; the process of ‘collision’ of two galaxies. This formation, called Arp 220, is made up of two spiral galaxies in the process of merging, and these galaxies began ‘colliding’ 700 million years ago.

The merging process of galaxies caused the birth of a new star, a huge ‘burst of light’

Arp 220, which is 250 million light-years away and consists of two galaxies, is also the “closest” to us. The brightest of the three galaxy mergers. NASA’s Hubble Space Telescope had previously discovered the cores of these major galaxies, which were 1,200 light-years apart. The merging cores of these two galaxies are each surrounded by ‘rings’ that fuel star formation.

The image of this process, which releases enormous energies, is more than a trillion sunshine. By comparison, the Milky Way galaxy is only ten billion suns bright…
