Jan 16, 2025 · This image from the NASA/ESA/CSA James Webb Space Telescope shows a portion of the Leo P dwarf galaxy (stars at lower right represented in blue). Leo P is a star-forming galaxy located about 5 million light-years away in the constellation Leo.

4 days ago · The Leo P Galaxy has shocked scientists with new findings from the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST). Located 5.3 million light-years away, this tiny, irregular dwarf galaxy was thought to have stopped forming stars billions of years ago. However, JWSTs stunning observations revealed that Leo P has unexpectedly reignited star formation, challenging previous beliefs about isolated galaxies.

Jan 16, 2025 · An STScI-led team of astronomers has used the James Webb Space Telescope to study Leo P, a dwarf galaxy located about 5.3 million light years from Earth that was discovered in 2013. Leo P is relatively isolated from other, larger galaxies like the Milky Way and Andromeda, which means it has been unaffected by their influence.

Feb 11, 2025 · The image from Webb’s Near-Infrared Camera (NIRCam) combines infrared light at wavelengths of 0.9 microns (represented in blue), 1.5 microns (green), and 2.77 microns (red).The stars in Leo P appear blue in comparison to the background galaxies for several reasons. Young, massive stars that are common in star-forming galaxies are predominantly blue.

Jan 16, 2025 · This image from NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope shows a portion of the Leo P dwarf galaxy (stars at lower right represented in blue). Leo P is a star-forming galaxy located about 5 million light years away in the constellation Leo. A team of scientists collected data from about 15,000 stars in Leo P to deduce its star formation history.

Jan 18, 2025 · The James Webb Space Telescope zeroed in on dwarf galaxy Leo P to study its star-formation history. ... Researchers used Webb to take pictures of Leo P, gathering data for some 15,000 stars.
