Summary
Description Crab Nebula imaged using James Webb Space Telescope.png |
English:
This is the Crab Nebula imaged using the James Webb Space Telescope in infrared via its NIRCam (Near-Infrared Camera) and MIRI (Mid-Infrared Instrument). The James Webb image may allow researchers to better understand the composition of the nebula, which could in turn enable better understanding of the supernova event that created it.
