Ring Nebula

A near-infrared image of the Ring Nebula, showcasing the intricate complexity of its structure in unparalleled detail, was captured in a composite image by the James Webb Telescope and released by NASA on August 21, 2023. The image reveals physical features that suggest the presence of a companion star, which may be playing a role in sculpting the layers ejected by the dying star. (Photo credit: Reuters)

Cosmic cliffs of the Carina Nebula

The "Cosmic Cliffs" of the Carina Nebula are depicted in an image, divided horizontally by an undulating line. The lower portion features a cloudscape forming a nebula, while the upper portion remains comparatively clear. Across both sections, a starfield is visible, filled with countless stars of varying sizes. This stunning image was captured using data from NASA's James Webb Space Telescope.

Globular Cluster NGC 2210

The densely packed globular cluster NGC 2210, located in the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC), is seen in a composite image taken by the James Webb Space Telescope and released by NASA on December 8, 2023. The LMC, situated about 157,000 light-years from Earth, is a satellite galaxy of the Milky Way, meaning the two galaxies are gravitationally bound. (Photo credit: Reuters)

Asteroid belt outside solar system

In a groundbreaking infrared image, the James Webb Space Telescope has captured the first detailed view of an asteroid belt outside our solar system. The data reveals three belts surrounding the star Fomalhaut, including two never-before-seen inner belts. These three nested belts extend up to 14 billion miles (23 billion km) from the star, which is 150 times the distance from Earth to our Sun. (Photo credit: Reuters)
