JWST Reveals Stunning New Images of the Crab Nebula
TL;DR Summary
NASA's James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) has captured stunning new views of the Crab Nebula, revealing never-before-seen details. The image shows the Crab Pulsar at the center of the nebula, surrounded by hazy, ghost-like wisps of charged particles. JWST's infrared capabilities allowed it to capture features that the Hubble Space Telescope couldn't, such as the composition of the ejected material. This marks the first time in 20 years that Hubble will have a new image of the Crab Nebula for comparison.
