This spiral galaxy was observed as part of the Physics at High Angular resolution in Nearby GalaxieS (PHANGS) program, a large project that includes observations from several space- and ground-based telescopes of many galaxies to help researchers study all phases of the star formation cycle, from the formation of stars within dusty gas clouds to the energy released in the process that creates the intricate structures revealed by Webb’s new images. NGC 1365 is 56 million light-years away in the constellation Fornax. Learn more about what can be seen in this vast collection of Webb images here. [Image description: Webb’s image of galaxy NGC 1365 shows a central region that looks like an angled, smashed oval that is a mix of bright orange shades that emanate a blue glow. The galaxy’s bar extends horizontally from the oval. It is crossed by messy dust filaments that curve slightly, forming a backward S shape. Fainter filaments appear below and above the core.]
