Galaxies that merge into giant swirls. Enormous stars that eventually explode and become supernovas. Neutron stars objects so dense, one tablespoon of their material would.

Discovery of a close companion to the 10th brightest star in our night sky may explain why similar red supergiant stars see changes in their brightness on the scale of many years.
At the center are two stars that appear as one in Webbs observation, and are set off with brilliant diffraction spikes. The stars follow a tight, elongated nine-year orbit and are draped in an arc.
Understanding the Context
A new study shows that silica - one of the most common substances on Earth - is formed when massive stars explode.
Neutron stars, or cores leftover from exploded stars, are some of the densest objects in the universe. There are several types of neutron stars, shown in this illustration, including magnetars.
With the Webb telescopes unprecedented sensitivity, scientists are learning more about dark matters influence on stars, galaxies, and even planets like Earth.
Stars, gas and cosmic dust in the Sagittarius B2 molecular cloud glow in near-infrared light, captured by Webbs NIRCam instrument. The darkest areas of the image are not empty space but are areas.
