Hey, Space Placers!
FROM NASA:
NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope has captured the sharpest infrared images to date of a zoomed-in portion of one of the most distinctive objects in our skies, the Horsehead Nebula. These observations show the top of the "horse's mane" or edge of this iconic nebula in a whole new light, capturing the region’s complexity with unprecedented spatial resolution.
Webb’s new images show part of the sky in the constellation Orion (The Hunter), in the western side of a dense region known as the Orion B molecular cloud. Rising from turbulent waves of dust and gas is the Horsehead Nebula, otherwise known as Barnard 33, which resides roughly 1,300 light-years away.
This latest WEBB pic is incredible. Here is my pic of the Horsehead Nebula taken in visible light with my @Unistellar eV2 scope.
