Messier 77, a beautiful spiral galaxy 45 million light-years from Earth, shines brilliantly in this infrared image from James Webb Space Telescope. The infrared emphasizes dusty regions, where new stars are born; M77 is giving birth to stars at a much higher rate than the Milky Way Galaxy. The galaxy’s core is so bright that it saturated the telescope’s instruments, producing the “spikes.” The core contains a black hole about eight million times the mass of the Sun. It is actively “feeding” on gas and dust that are being funneled into it, making the core especially bright. [ESA/NASA/CSA/A. Leroy]
