New Views of The Horsehead Nebula | James Webb Space Telescope
Astronomers have used NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope to survey the Horsehead Nebula in incredible detail. The Horsehead Nebula is an iconic area in the constellation Orion where massive stars are being born. Combining views from many telescopes allows astronomers to understand the inner workings of this nebula like never before. From Euclid, to Hubble, and now Webb, we can learn more about our universe thanks to these amazing machines.
