Examining the Cat's Head Nebula with the Hubble and JWST
Star formation is a complicated process. It involves metallicity, gas temperature and density, dust grains, and stellar feedback from existing stars. Sometimes, studying all these factors and how they work means studying some of Nature's most beautiful structures, like the Cat's Head nebula in the Carina Nebula.
NASA's Hubble and James Webb space telescopes have captured a star-forming scene of an enchanting dynamic, like a spectral form emerging from a cold mist. It is located in the vast nebula of the Carene, a diffuse star-forming region located about 7,500 light-years away from the Earth. The [...]
The Cathead Nebula, located in the Carina Nebula region, has been the subject of recent studies carried out by the Hubble and James Webb telescopes (JWST). With an appearance that refers to a cat,...

An orange-brown filament of dust is in the center, stretching from the bottom to almost the very top. It has a narrow, irregular shape that resembles a cat sitting with its back toward the viewer and a tail extending downward. The tail ends at the lower one-…
