Webb Space Telescope takes stunningly detailed infrared image of actively forming stars

The James Webb Space Telescope has captured the activity of a pair of forming young stars in high-resolution near-infrared light. 

These stars, known as Herbig-Haro 46/47, are imaged within the orange-white splotch, buried in a disk of gas and dust. 

The disk, which is not visible other than its shadow, feeds their growth as they continue to gain mass.

Its shadow can be seen in the two dark, conical regions surrounding the central stars.

The two-sided lobes extending outward from the actively forming central stars are shown in orange, made up mostly o...
