Galaxy Pair VV 191: Elliptical & Spiral Galaxies | Webb & Hubble

By combining data from the NASA/European Space Agency/Canadian Space Agency James Webb Space Telescope and the NASA/European Space Agency Hubble Space Telescope, researchers were able to trace light that was emitted by the large white elliptical galaxy at left through the spiral galaxy at right and identify the effects of interstellar dust in the spiral galaxy. This image of galaxy pair VV 191 includes near-infrared light from Webb, and ultraviolet and visible light from Hubble.
