NASA Reveals Stunning Views from Webb and Hubble Telescopes
NASA's space telescopes, like the James Webb and Hubble, are taking amazing pictures of space!
They've captured images of galaxies super far away.
One image shows a galaxy cluster, called Abell S1063, that's 4.5 billion light-years away.
Another shows a galaxy, HerS 020941.1+001557, as it looked 11 billion years ago.
The telescopes also photographed the Large Magellanic Cloud, and a spiral galaxy.
It's like looking back in time to see how the universe was created.
James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) and Hubble telescopes captured images of distant galaxies.
JWST observed the galaxy cluster Abell S1063, located 4.5 billion light-years away.
Hubble captured an image of galaxy HerS 020941.1+001557 as it appeared 11 billion years ago.
Images also featured the Large Magellanic Cloud and the spiral galaxy NGC 2283.
The telescopes showcase galaxies, some using gravitational lensing.
