The James Webb Space Telescope has photographed a pair of merging galaxies, also known as II ZW 96. The Merging Galaxies is about 500 light-years away in the constellation of Delphinus, near the celestial equator. After the merger of this galaxy merger, there has been a change in the size of both. Both galaxies have twisted under the influence of gravity after the merger.
