Zoom Into Pandora’s Cluster ✨ #shorts
Astronomers estimate 50 000 sources of near-infrared light are represented in this image from the NASA/ESA/CSA James Webb Space Telescope. Their light has travelled through various distances to reach the telescope’s detectors, representing the vastness of space in a single image. A foreground star in our own galaxy, to the right of the image centre, displays Webb’s distinctive diffraction spikes. Bright white sources surrounded by a hazy glow are the galaxies of Pandora’s Cluster, a conglomeration of already-massive clusters of galaxies coming together to form a mega cluster. The concentration of mass is so great that the fabric of spacetime is warped by gravity, creating a natural, super-magnifying glass called a ‘gravitational lens’ that astronomers can use to see very distant sources of light beyond the cluster that would otherwise be undetectable, even to Webb.

#ESA #Webb #Space
kindly also add the light year distance , without which it's confusing hiw much distance far objects we are watching…
God
Truly mind blowing 🤯
SubhanAllah… milyonlarca yıldız ve gezegeni birbirine çarptirmadan evrende gezdiren Allahim! Sana inanıp, iman ettik.🎉🎉🎉
