NASA image shows star activity over 1,400 light-years away
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.
