(NASA) NGC 4254, a spiral galaxy, is resplendent in orange and blue in this Jan. 29, 2024, image from the James Webb Space Telescope.

This is one of 19 nearby spiral galaxies recently imaged by the telescope as part of the long-standing Physics at High Angular Resolution in Nearby GalaxieS program supported by more than 150 astronomers worldwide.

Webbs Near-Infrared Camera captured millions of stars in these images, which sparkle in blue tones. At the same time, the telescopes Mid-Infrared Instrument data highlights glowing dust, showing us where it exists around and between stars.
