The James Webb Space Telescope,

has brought us more out of this world photographs, 


all images courtesy of NASA/ESA/CSA above Edge of the Horsehead Nebula, these amazing images are from an area known as the Orion B molecular cloud, at 1,300 light-years away—more than 7.8 quadrillion miles from Earth—the cloud is the closest star-forming region to our solar system. And rising from the turbulent field of gas and dust is Barnard 33, commonly known as the Horsehead Nebula,

the James Webb Space Telescopezoomed in on the top crest of the nebula to capture the region’s complexity with never-before-seen spatial resolution, 

as well as photographs, the team has released a gyroscopic video, taking us on a journey through the light-years in just under two minutes and providing a sense of the enormous scale and distance Webb documents, you can explore more of Webb’s missions on NASA’s website, what other wonders will this telescope find out there?
