The James Webb Space Telescope has imaged a collision between two galaxies that appears to have created a beaming smile in space.

Using the James Webb Space Telescope, astronomers have uncovered that supermassive black holes can exhaust the resources necessary for star formation in their host galaxies, effectively starving them.

Among the Milky Way’s outskirts is a firecracker show of star formation. How do environmental factors affect the star formation process? To help answer this question, NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope

New observations with JWST have confirmed that supermassive black holes have the power to quench star formation across their surrounding galaxies.

Galaxies usually become chaotic when they run out of star-making fuel, but this one is going out surprisingly quietly.

Astronomers have used the NASA/ESA James Webb Space Telescope to confirm that supermassive black holes can starve their host galaxies of the fuel they need to form new stars. The results are reported in the journal Nature Astronomy.

A galaxy seen by the JWST has confirmed the suspicion that some supermassive black holes can kill their home galaxy. The galaxy in question is around the mass of the Milky Way, but is set on a very different path.
