The Sombrero galaxy is split diagonally in this image, revealing how the universe looks through different kinds of infrared light. On the left, Webb’s near-infrared (NIRCam) view shows where dust from the outer ring blocks stellar light from the inner portions of the galaxy. On the right, mid-infrared (MIRI) observations actually shows that dust glowing.
Webb’s remarkable resolution also reveals individual stars surrounding the galaxy. Some of the reddish points are red giants, which are older, cooler stars that shine brightly thanks to their immense size. The smaller, hotter blue stars fade from view in the mid-infrared, giving us a sense of how the galaxy’s population changes with wavelength.
About 30 million light-years away in the constellation Virgo, the Sombrero Galaxy’s bright central bulge and wide ring of dust create the shape that inspired its name.
