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.
Woah! That's a massive amount of lensed galaxies. Just goes to show that the deeper we dig, the more we find.
Hopefully they keep digging and finding even more cool things!
So freaking cool. Wonder how far away that loooooong stretched boy is.
It took 11 billion years for stretched boy's light to reach us. That amount of time staggers me!
