"James Webb Telescope Uncovers Stunning Details of Iconic Eye-Shaped Supernova"
The Webb Space Telescope has captured an image of Supernova 1987A, revealing its equatorial and outer rings, crescent structures, and inner ejecta. The image, taken in September 2022, shows the dense core of the supernova's inner ejecta, which remains impenetrable even to Webb's high resolution. SN 1987A, located in the Large Magellanic Cloud, emits a range of electromagnetic radiation, and future observations by Webb may help unravel the mysteries surrounding this stellar explosion.
