Stunning Webb Images Capture Vibrant Birth of Stars

The James Webb Space Telescope has captured a stunning image of Herbig-Haro 46/47, showcasing a pair of actively forming stars in vibrant detail and color. The image was processed using scientific principles of "chromatic ordering," assigning color channels to filtered images. The image reveals the ability of Webb to peer through thick dust and gas, providing insights into star formation. The image also highlights distant galaxies and stars in the background.
