NASA’s Webb Peers into the Extreme Outer Galaxy
Astronomers have directed NASAs James Webb Space Telescope to examine the outskirts of our Milky Way galaxy. Scientists call this region the Extreme Outer Galaxy due to its location more than 58,000 light-years away from the Galactic Center. For comparison, Earth is approximately 26,000 light-years from the center.
