Webb telescope 'weighs' a galaxy for 1st time
James Webb Space Telescope Uncovers ‘Firefly Sparkle’
Mowla, who spotted the galaxy in Webb’s image, was drawn to its gleaming star clusters, because objects that sparkle typically indicate they are extremely clumpy and complicated. Since the galaxy looks like a ‘sparkle’ or swarm of fireflies on a warm summer night, they named it the Firefly Sparkle galaxy.
Firefly Sparkle: Webb telescope 'weighs' a galaxy for the first time
Nicknamed the Firefly Sparkle, this galaxy existed just 600 million years after the Big Bang and gleams with 10 distinct star clusters.
Firefly Sparkle galaxy offers a taste of the infant Milky Way
NASA's James Webb Space Telescope has spotted a young galaxy dating to the early universe - called Firefly Sparkle because its gleaming star clusters resemble the bioluminescent bugs - in a discovery that is giving astronomers a peek at what our Milky Way may have looked like in its infancy.
Meet Firefly Sparkle, Webb telescope's galaxy find similar to Milky Way
Firefly Sparkle is a lightweight among the universe's galaxy contenders seen by NASA's James Webb Space Telescope, but the discovery is no less important than more massive galaxies because of what it has in common with our home Milky Way galaxy.
