Sombrero, James Webb Space Telescope

The Sombrero Galaxy's star-forming days are nearly over — and the James Webb Space Telescope may know why
The James Webb Space Telescope's brand-new image of the Sombrero Galaxy casts this city of stars in a new light — mid-infrared light, to be precise — and reveals clumps of dust in a mottled outer ring.
