Red background galaxies and some blue faint stars. A bright star on the upper right is not part of the dwarf galaxy.
The faint stars in this field is the Pegasus W dwarf galaxy, located in the local group (group the Milky Way and Andromeda Galaxy belong to). #JWST NIRCam image #localgroup
It was discovered in 2023 by Kristen McQuinn et al. commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Pe...

A stunning image of IC 10, the closest known starburst galaxy to us, located in the constellation Cassiopeia. This irregular dwarf galaxy displays vibrant reddish star-forming regions, its light slightly dimmed by intervening dust. The image highlights the galaxy's numerous bright, massive stars and hints at the presence of a black hole within a luminous X-ray binary system. The cosmic background features countless stars in the night sky.

We went to have a look at Newbold Quarry where we've done a lot of thinning of trees in secondary woodland. Last Winter's glade has come up with lots of Common Dog Violet and there were Silver Washed Frits' flying for the 2nd year. #conservation @warwickshirewt.bsky.social #localgroup

A stunning image of IC 10, the closest known starburst galaxy to Earth, located in the constellation Cassiopeia. The image reveals vibrant reddish star-forming regions within this irregular dwarf galaxy, which is part of our Local Group and contains a luminous X-ray binary system potentially harboring a black hole. Its light is slightly dimmed by interstellar dust.

All-sky map showing the Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) dipole anisotropy. The colors represent temperature variations caused by the motion of our Local Group of galaxies relative to the CMB at 600 km/s. Blueshifted (hotter) radiation is in the direction of motion, redshifted (colder) in the opposite direction. This high speed and its cause remain unexplained.

A stunning image of IC 10, the closest known starburst galaxy to Earth, located in the constellation Cassiopeia. The image showcases its vibrant reddish star-forming regions, contrasting against the backdrop of countless stars in the Milky Way's plane. Dust obscures some of its light, but its energetic activity is clearly visible. IC 10 is part of the Local Group of galaxies and harbors a large population of massive, bright stars, including a luminous X-ray binary system potentially containing a black hole.

A stunning deep-space image showcasing NGC 6822, also known as Barnard's Galaxy. This dwarf irregular galaxy, located 1.5 million light-years away in the constellation Sagittarius, is a member of our Local Group. The image reveals the galaxy's young blue stars and pink star-forming regions, contrasting with the spiky appearance of brighter foreground stars from our Milky Way. The vibrant colors and intricate details highlight the beauty and complexity of this often-overlooked celestial neighbor.

A stunning telescopic mosaic showcasing the Andromeda Galaxy (M31) and the Triangulum Galaxy (M33), two major members of the Local Group, separated by approximately 14 degrees. The bright star Mirach (beta Andromedae) is centrally positioned between them, within our own Milky Way galaxy. Faint dust clouds are also visible, highlighting the vastness of space and the gravitational connection between these distant galaxies. Future simulations predict close encounters and potential mergers between the Milky Way, M31, and M33 billions of years from now.

Stunning image of the Andromeda Galaxy (M31), our nearest major galactic neighbor. This spiral galaxy, similar to our Milky Way, is composed of hundreds of billions of stars and lies approximately 2.5 million light-years away. Foreground stars from our own galaxy are visible. A testament to the vastness and beauty of the cosmos.

Stunning image of the Triangulum Galaxy (M33), a face-on spiral galaxy in the constellation Triangulum. Its vibrant blue star clusters and pink star-forming regions are beautifully showcased against a backdrop of countless stars. M33 is a significant galaxy in the Local Group, serving as a cosmic yardstick for measuring distances in the universe. The image highlights the brightest star-forming region, NGC 604.

Stunning ultraviolet image of the Andromeda Galaxy (M31), showing its spiral arms as rings due to hot, young stars. Captured by the Galaxy Evolution Explorer (GALEX) satellite, this composite image reveals the galaxy's collision with M32 millions of years ago. Our galactic neighbor is a breathtaking 2.5 million light-years away.
