This March 16, 2026, image from NASA\u2019s Hubble Space Telescope and the James Webb Space Telescope takes a closer look at the core of Messier 101, also known as the Pinwheel Galaxy. At 25 million light-years away, M101 is one of the closest \u201cface-on\u201d spiral galaxies to us. With that in mind, Hubble\u2019s ultraviolet, visible, and near-infrared data were taken as part of studies to find out more about its stellar population and galactic structure.<\/p>\n
