James Webb Watches a Young Star Bake Crystals for Future Planets
Using NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope, astronomers have observed a young star in the Serpens Nebula forging crystalline silicates during powerful outbursts. The findings explain how heat-formed minerals can end up in cold cometary regions and planet-forming disks, shedding light on early stages of planet formation.

James Webb Telescope Captures First Image of Aligned Protostellar Outflows
NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope has made a significant discovery with its latest image of the Serpens Nebula, taken on June 20, 2024. This image showcases aligned protostellar outflows—jets of gas expelled by newborn stars—all pointing in the same direction. Serpens Nebula, a reflection nebula, reflects light from nearby stars rather than e...
