Astronomers have discovered what seems to be a new "jellyfish" galaxy about 12 billion light-years away from Earth using high-resolution imaging from the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST).
The galaxy appears to have tentacle-like trails of gas and stars jutting off from one side, likely making it a jellyfish galaxy — a class of galaxies that drip tendrils of star-forming material as they swim through space. Though more analysis is needed to confirm whether the newfound galaxy truly falls into this category, all signs so far indicate that it does.

A1C Medrick "Rick" DeVaney - Thanks. This looks as zany as his other movies. I'll have to look into ordering it on my TV. He is making another one, I think it's called the Sequel to the Prequel, or something like that I think Brother Stephen Conway knows about it.
