What Is The Hottest Place In The Universe?In this Hubble Image Quasar 3C 273 could be mistaken for an ordinary star, but the galaxies in the field of view hint at its true status, not just a quasar, but the hottest one whose temperature we have measured.

The Starlight Around An Early-Universe Quasar Seen For First TimeImage taken with the JWST instrument NIRCam at the (near-infrared) wavelength of 3.6 microns of the quasar HSC J2236+0032. In the background, the full image, with the quasar in the center. Top inset: a close-up of the quasar and its galaxy; bottom: the same image with the quasar's light subtracted, so that the host galaxy becomes visible.

Strange Cosmic Object That Defies Classification Spotted by HubbleA spiral galaxy. It has two almost-straight arms coming from the left and right of the core that meet a starry ring around the galaxy’s edge. The ring is bluish in colour, and the core is golden and shining. A faint halo of light also surrounds the galaxy. There is one bright star with many diffraction spikes, and a few small stars all around on a black background.
