Happy International Women’s Day! 💜

This breathtaking image of the Phoenix Cluster is a testament to the power of collaboration. It combines data from four remarkable telescopes each revealing a different part of the story: 

- hubbleesa captures the galaxies in stunning optical light, showing their golden glow.
- nasachandraxray maps the scorching hot gas in purple, exposing the extreme conditions within the cluster.
- thenrao’s Very Large Array detects radio waves in red, tracing powerful jets from a supermassive black hole that, instead of halting star formation, is helping to ignite new stars.
- esawebb’s infrared spectroscopic instrument was able to detect cooling gas for the first time between the cavities tracing very hot gas.

Just like these telescopes, when we bring together different perspectives, skills, and strengths, we create something greater than the sum of its parts. Today, we celebrate the incredible women who, through their own light, help shape a more diverse, inclusive, and brilliant future.

Tag the women who inspire you and check our instagram Story for a special wallpaper to celebrate equality!
