ESA Webb Telescope

Hubble, Webb, and a ghostly cat 👻🐈‍⬛

@Hubble_Space and the NASA/ESA/CSA James Webb Space Telescope have imaged the nearby Cat’s Head Nebula! The two telescopes offer complementary views of the shadowy form. 1/3

🛎️ It's quiz time! Webb has snapped the technicolour dreamscape known as NGC 7129, which is filled with stellar objects in different stages of their lives.

Staring deep 👁️👁️ into a nearby nebula

@Hubble_Space and Webb have teamed up to capture complementary views of a star-forming region known as the Cat’s Head Nebula 🐱 1/2

🛎️ It's quiz time! In the early history of our Solar System, a Mars-sized object struck the Earth, blasting vapourised rock into space. Recently, Webb examined the aftermaths of similar upheavals (‘extreme debris discs’) around other stars.

In the 2026 ESA/Hubble and ESA/Webb calendar, the month of November features the planetary nebula NGC 6072 in the near-infrared. This shows outflows expanding at different angles from the dying star at the centre of the scene ☠️⭐
