The Webb Space Telescope captured a striking image of the spiral galaxy Messier 77, revealing an intensely bright nucleus that outshines its surroundings. The high-resolution picture highlights the galaxy's central structure and active core, offering a detailed look at processes that shape galaxy centers. This targeted imaging complements large-scale surveys and contrasts with recent findings of unusually dark-matter-dominated galaxies, together improving our picture of galaxy diversity.
