Well, they are probably imaging it that way because the pictures are pretty old ;)
Hubbles Deep Field (1st image) is from 1995.

Btw, some of these pictures look so much like how graphic designers draw imagined universe 😂😂

Especially the first picture. Would bat an eye if this was a Galaxy leggings from 2013 😂

SMACS 0723 is a cluster of galaxies within the southern constellation of Volans. It’s about 5.12 billion light-years away.

This is a planetary nebula — an expanding cloud of gas, surrounding a dying star. It’s nearly half a light-year in diameter, and is located approximately 2,000 light-years away from Earth.

About 290 million light-years away, Stephan’s Quintet is a group of five galaxies, located in the Pegasus constellation. It’s notable for being the first compact galaxy group ever discovered in 1877.

Carina Nebula is one of the largest and brightest nebulae in the sky, located approximately 7,600 light-years away. It’s home to many massive stars that are several times larger than the Sun.
