Image Pan and Zoom of the SERPENS NEBULA #jwst

This image highlights the center of the Serpens Nebulashows and was taken by NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope’s Near-Infrared Camera (NIRCam).

The Serpens Nebula is located approximately 1,300 light-years from Earth and is home to a dense cluster of stars that are relatively young (~100,000 years old). Some of these stars will eventually grow to the mass of our Sun. Webb’s image of this nebula revealed a grouping of aligned protostellar outflows (seen in the top left). These jets are signified by bright clumpy streaks that appear red, which are shock waves from the jet hitting surrounding gas and dust.
