Full image of Zwicky 18 by JWST. 🔭 🧪

Many small galaxies are scattered on a black background: mainly, white, oval-shaped and red, spiral galaxies. The image is dominated by a dwarf irregular galaxy, which hosts a bright region of white and blue stars at its core that appear as two distinct lobes. This region is surrounded by brown dusty filaments. At the bottom centre of the image, a companion galaxy is visible that appears as a collection of blue stars.
