Galactic evolution

This image of galaxy GS-NDG-9422, captured by the James Webb Space Telescope's NIRCam (Near-Infrared Camera) instrument, is presented with compass arrows, scale bar, and colour key for reference.

Webb Telescope Unveils Unprecedented ‘Weird’ Galaxy from Early Universe

This image shows two panels side by side. The right panel illustrates a spinning top precessing due to gravitational force. The left panel depicts the Galactic disk warp, which behaves similarly to the spinning top. The warp moves in a graceful pattern under the influence of the dark matter halo's gravitational pull. This illustration was created by HOU Kaiyuan and DONG Zhanxun from Shanghai Jiao Tong University.
