This natural phenomenon magnifies distant galaxies and can also make them appear in an image multiple times, as NASA\u2019s James Webb Space Telescope saw here. Two distant, interacting galaxies \u2014 a face-on spiral and a dusty red galaxy seen from the side \u2014 appear multiple times, tracing a familiar shape across the sky. Active star formation, and the face-on galaxy\u2019s remarkably intact spiral shape, indicate that these galaxies\u2019 interaction is just beginning.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.esa.int\/ESA_Multimedia\/Images\/2024\/09\/Lensed_Question_Mark_Galaxy_NIRCam?rand=772187\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The galaxy cluster MACS-J0417.5-1154 is so massive it is warping the fabric of space-time and distorting the appearance of galaxies behind it, an effect known as gravitational lensing.
