A Comparison of Stephan's Quintet

A Comparison of Stephan's Quintet
This is a comparison of Stephan's Quintet by the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) and the Hubble Space Telescope (HST). The point of this comparison is to note how many more background galaxies that are visible in the JWST image. The sheer differences will quickly redefine our understanding of the number of galaxies that are in the Universe. Credit: StSCI, NASA, Hubble
