James Webb Telescope Captures Stunning Infrared View of Exposed Cranium Nebula
NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope has captured remarkably detailed infrared images of PMR 1, known as the “Exposed Cranium,” a planetary nebula roughly 5,000 light-years away in the constellation Vela. The observations reveal a glowing inner “brain” region surrounded by a hydrogen gas shell, divided by a dark lane of ejected material, pro...

James Webb Captures Stunning Infrared Image of the Helix Nebula Eye of God
The James Webb Space Telescope has captured a detailed infrared image of the Helix Nebula, also known as the “Eye of God.” The glowing ring of gas around a white dwarf star reveals filaments and knots formed as stellar winds collide with older material, offering insight into the fate of Sun-like stars.

NASA James Webb Telescope Reveals ‘Jekyll and Hyde’ Star System Hiding a Supermassive Black Hole
For decades, astronomers have studied galaxy formation, but the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) has now revealed a galaxy with a dual personality, earning it the nickname “Jekyll and Hyde.” Known as Virgil, the galaxy shows a mild-mannered side, forming stars quietly, while its hidden core harbours a heavily obscured supermassive black hole t...

Webb’s Stunning View of Apep Shows a Rare Triple-Star System Wrapped in Spirals
Webb’s mid-infrared images of Apep reveal a rare triple-star system producing vast carbon-rich dust spirals from colliding stellar winds. The two Wolf–Rayet stars and a distant supergiant create layered shells that record centuries of activity and enrich the galaxy with elements vital for future stars and planets.

NASA’s JWST Produces First-Ever 3D Map of Distant Planet WASP-18b
NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope has created the first-ever 3D atmospheric map of an exoplanet, revealing the extreme conditions on WASP-18b, an “ultra-hot Jupiter” located 400 light-years away. Using infrared eclipse mapping, scientists discovered a scorching hotspot over 2,700 °C where water molecules are breaking apart. This groundbreaki...
