Highest resolution version of a James Webb Space Telescope composite image showing the Cartwheel and its companion galaxies. The Cartwheel is composed of two rings, a bright inner ring and a colourful outer ring. Both rings expand outward from the center of the collision like shockwaves. This snapshot provides perspective on what happened to the galaxy in the past and what it will do in the future. Credit: NASA, ESA, CSA, and STScI / Digitaleye
