"Webb Telescope Uncovers Stunning Structures in Famous Supernova"
NASA's James Webb Space Telescope has captured detailed images of Supernova 1987A, revealing new structures and providing insights into the development of supernovas over time. The telescope's NIRCam instrument uncovered crescent-like structures, previously unseen, which are believed to be part of the outer layers of gas ejected from the explosion. The high-resolution images offer unprecedented clarity and detail, surpassing the observations made by the now-retired Spitzer telescope. Webb will continue to study the supernova, collaborating with other observatories to unravel its mysteries and gain further insights into its past and future.
