N79: A Younger Version of the Tarantula Nebula Captured by the JWST!
2024年2月19日 · N79 is a region of interstellar hydrogen gas that is ionised by the radiation of young, hot stars. It is also known as a younger version of the Tarantula Nebula, another of Webb’s targets. We will explain how the JWST captured the image of N79 in infrared light, revealing the glowing gas and dust inside the clouds.
