Distance 160,000 light years
Diameter 1630 light years
Discovered Henize 1956
The starburst spikes are optical artifacts and appear because of the hexagonal symmetry of Webb's 18 primary mirrors. IE, it's caused by the design of the telescope.

Super star clusters are rarities now: so late in cosmic history.
But over in the Large Magellanic Cloud, we've just discovered a new one thanks to JWST and ALMA combined.
