NGC 3132 (also known as the Eight-Burst Nebula, [2] the Southern Ring Nebula, [2] or Caldwell 74) is a bright and extensively studied planetary nebula in the constellation Vela. Its distance from Earth is estimated at 613 pc or 2,000 light-years .
Before Webb, images like these only came from the Hubble Space Telescope, which rocketed into Earth's orbit in 1990. But the JWST pictures reveal the rewards of the 25 years and $10 billion NASA ...
English: What looks much like craggy mountains on a moonlit evening is actually the edge of a nearby, young, star-forming region NGC 3324 in the Carina Nebula. Captured in infrared light by the Near-Infrared Camera (NIRCam) on NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope, this image reveals previously obscured areas of star birth.
An image of the Southern Ring Nebula, captured on the James Webb Space Telescope, is shown at the NASA Jet Propulsion Laboratory Tuesday, July 12, 2022, in Pasadena, Calif. (AP Photo/Marcio Jose ...
Captured in infrared light by NASA’s new James Webb Space Telescope, this image reveals for the first time previously invisible areas of star birth. Called the Cosmic Cliffs, Webb’s seemingly three-dimensional picture looks like craggy mountains on a moonlit evening.
The James Webb Space Telescope has revealed colorful new portraits of the iconic Ring Nebula. The new images capture the complex details of the planetary nebula, an enormous cloud of cosmic gas ...
The James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) has captured new images of the Ring Nebula revealing intricate details. The shots, released on Thursday 3 August by an international team of astronomers from ...
Hubble Space Telescope image of the nebula M1-67 and WR 124 at its center. WR 124 is surrounded by an intensely hot nebula formed from the star's extreme stellar wind. [ 9 ] The nebula M1-67 is expanding at a rate of over 150,000 km/h (93,000 mph) and is nearly 6 light-years across, leading to the dynamical age of 20,000 years.
