Webb’s new mid-IR image of Sombrero galaxy improves the view
The sharp resolution of Webb’s MIRI (Mid-Infrared Instrument) also brings into focus details of the galaxy’s outer ring, providing insights into how the dust, an essential building block for astronomical objects in the Universe, is distributed. The galaxy’s outer ring shows intricate clumps in the infrared for the first time.

Webb telescope clears the haze around a stunning galactic icon
Webb's ability to see through hazy obstacles is demonstrated here with the Sombrero, aka Messier 104, a nearly edge-on spiral galaxy about 30 million light-years from Earth in the constellation Virgo. The galaxy was discovered in 1781 by the French comet hunter Pierre Méchain, one of renowned astronomer Charles Messier’s colleagues.
