The administration posted the photos on Instagram with a caption that celebrates two years with the incredible telescope. It also states, “@NASAAWebb is the largest telescope ever launched into space, and its specialty is observing infrared light—allowing it to see the earliest galaxies in the universe, peer into exoplanet atmospheres, see the beginnings of planetary systems, and more.”

NASA named these galaxies the Penguin and the Egg. NASA goes on to explain that the galaxies are “joined by a blue haze, a mix of stars and gas.” It also mentions that “the pair have been in the process of merging for tens of millions of years.” Astronomers believe that the two galaxies will eventually become one.

If you look closely at the photo, you can see the blue haze hovering around the orange-colored galaxies. You can also make out what appears to be the penguin’s head, with its beak and even an eye in the center of the head.

NASA stands for National Aeronautics and Space Administration. It is the government’s civil space agency. Space.com mentions how NASA “explores the unknown in air and space, innovates for the benefit of humanity, and inspires the world through discovery.” NASA is home to some of the world’s best scientists.

With over 20 facilities, they have no shortage of resources or workers. These centers work together to study Earth’s climate, the sun and moon, and the entire solar system. Then, people like you and me get to benefit from their research with stunning photos like the Penguin Galaxy!
