Uranus- JWST NIRCam

This image also shows 14 of the planet’s 27 moons: Oberon, Titania, Umbriel, Juliet, Perdita, Rosalind, Puck, Belinda, Desdemona, Cressida, Ariel, Miranda, Bianca, and Portia.

This picture shows Uranus's north polar cap as well as a storm just below the polar edge.

Two spiral galaxies, NGC 6040 and NGC 6039, are merging together at the right side of this Hubble image. NGC 6039 is seen face-on and is circular in shape. NGC 6040 seems to lie in front of the first one. In the lower-left corner, cut off by the frame, the elliptical galaxy NGC 6041 — a central member of the galaxy cluster that Arp 122 resides in — appears as light radiating from a point. The color image was made from separate exposures taken in the visible and infrared regions

A stellar exodus was caught in action!  Astronomers used the Hubble Space Telescope to watch the white dwarf exodus in the globular star cluster 47 Tucanae, a dense swarm of hundreds of thousands of stars in our Milky Way galaxy. Hubble took snapshots of fledgling white dwarf stars beginning their slow-paced, 40-million-year migration from the crowded center of an ancient star cluster to the less populated suburbs. By observing ultraviolet light, astronomers examined 3,000 white dwarfs, tracing two populations with diverse ages and orbits. One grouping was 6 million years old and had just begun their journey. Another was around 100 million years old and had already arrived at its new homestead far from the center, roughly 1.5 light-years, or nearly 9 trillion miles (14 trillion kilometers), away. The cluster resides 14,500 light-years away in the southern constellation Tucana. Credit: NASA, ESA, and H. Richer and J. Heyl (University of British Columbia, Vancouver, Canada).
