This is an image from the James Webb Space Telescope’s NIRCam overlayed with a contour map of data from the Very Large Array radio telescope. It shows the 'Infinity Galaxy,' named because it looks like the symbol for infinity. It has two very compact nuclei formed by a collision between two galaxies. It also has a supermassive black hole in between them. Could it be a direct-collapse black hole? Image Credit:
