Six Hubble images of distorted galaxies are organized in a two-row mosaic. From left to right, the top row of galaxies appears as follows: The left panel has a galaxy that resembles the number nine tilted on its side to the left and has red-orange regions scattered with blue knots. The center square shows an edge-on spiral galaxy appearing like a white thin bar extending from 8 ou2019clock to 2 ou2019clock. It has a bright, compact core and a small background spiral galaxy just below the core. The right panel shows two merging galaxies forming a convoluted shape that extends from 8 ou2019clock to 2 ou2019clock. The bottom row of galaxies appears as follows: Left square contains a face-on spiral with faint, broad arcs of material to its left and right. The center panel has a hazy white, face-on spiral with a lumpy vertical line to its right that appears to curve around its core. The right panel shows an orange elliptical galaxy with a lumpy blueish galaxy curving around it to the right.

$Image shows a large spiral galaxy that that has a bright white center, with several lanes of reddish-brown dust and gas in between faint white arms. The galaxy takes up the center third of the frame. There are several thousand stars, some with diffraction spikes, scattered around the image. This image is labeled Hubble. A small box outlining an area at the center of the galaxy leads a pullout square at the top right. The image, labeled Webb, is dark with a white glowing oval at the center.$
