ESA has published a new image of the galaxy NGC 7469 from James Webb

The diameter of the object is 90,000 light—years, the distance from Earth is 220 million light-years.

Using various instruments of the telescope, scientists have discovered very young areas of star formation, as well as direct evidence of the destruction of small dust clusters within a radius of several hundred light-years from the core, which in turn proves that the active core of the galaxy affects the surrounding interstellar environment.
