Description

Due to the weather conditions, another processing exercise from the JWST with the MIRI camera.
The center of the barred spiral galaxy NGC 1365 in the constellation of Fornax. Barred spiral galaxies are of great interest to astronomers, as new observations suggest our Milky Way might be one, too. Because of its advanced infrared optics, the JWST is well suited to studying the cores of these galaxies and observing the forces driving things like star formation, supermassive black holes, and so on.
