Webb's observations confirm that the Cartwheel is going through a very fleeting phase. The galaxy, which before the collision was probably a typical spiral galaxy like the Milky Way, will probably continue to change. While Webb provides a glimpse of the Cartwheel's current situation, it also sheds light on the galaxy's past events and potential future developments.
