This image released by NASA in Washington on September 9, 2009 shows Gravitational Lensing in Galaxy Cluster Abell 370 through The Hubble Space Telescope's newly repaired Advanced Camera for Surveys (ACS). Abell 370 is one of the very first galaxy clusters where astronomers observed the phenomenon of gravitational lensing, where the warping of space by the clusterÕs gravitational field distorts the light from galaxies lying far behind it. This is manifested as arcs and streaks in the picture, which are the stretched images of background galaxies. UPI/NASA, ESA, Hubble SM4 ERO Team Image details Contributor:

This image mosaic, released on February 11, 2022, was created by pointing the telescope at a bright, isolated star in the constellation Ursa Major, known as HD 84406. This star was chosen because it is easily identifiable and not crowded by other stars of similar brightness, which helps to reduce background confusion. These initial results closely match expectations and simulations.

The subject is the Rho Ophiuchi cloud complex, the closest star-forming region to Earth. It is a relatively small, quiet stellar nursery, but you'd never know it from Webb's chaotic close-up.
