This image, captured by the James Webb Telescope, has an uncanny resemblence to features found in the Mandlebrot fractal
Though the Phantom Galaxy is difficult to find in the night sky, its brilliance is far from invisible, especially when captured in infrared with Webb. Hubble's optical image of the galaxy, also called M74, shows the galaxy's perfect spiral structure and its distribution of stars, arms extending outward from a radiant center. But a new Webb image reveals fiber-like structures of heat-emitting dust and gas, emanating from a bright center rendered in vivid electric blue. The new image will shed (infrared) light on star-forming regions scattered amongst the galaxy’s spiral arms.
