ALT The image is dominated by a hazy nebula in space. The center of the nebula glows a whitish blue, which grades concentrically to reddish brown at its edges before fading to black. A bright, young star near the center of the image emits four thin beams of light in a diagonal cross shape. This star sits on the border of a black, keyhole-shaped void in the center of the frame. In the background of the image, three red-and-yellow pinpoints of light glow from the darkness. Two of these spots resemble a pair of eyes. Credit: NASA/ESA/ESO/K. Noll

ALT A nebula made of clouds of gas and dust with stars forming within. In the center and out to the left it is filled with thin, wispy blue gas that forms delicate layers. Around this are thicker orange clouds with dark ridges. Thin red filaments of gas cross the center of the nebula. Glowing bubbles in the gas contain dense, very bright clusters of stars. In the edges, distant stars are visible as bright points on a dark background. Credit: ESA/Webb, NASA & CSA, E. Sabbi, M. Zamani (ESA/Webb)
