Cosmic Clash: James Webb Telescope Captures Titan Wreckage

The James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) has captured an image of the galaxy NGC 3256, revealing the aftermath of a massive collision between two galaxies that occurred around 500 million years ago. The image shows long tendrils of dust and stars extending from the main body of the galaxy, indicating its chaotic past. Studying these cosmic collisions can provide insights into how galaxies grow and merge, as well as the growth of supermassive black holes at their centers. The collision also triggered intense star formation, visible as bright regions within the galaxy. The JWST's image highlights its capability to understand galactic growth and the evolution of the universe.
