INBOX ASTRONOMY Webb Reveals Never-Before-Seen Details in Cassiopeia A Release date: Friday, April 7, 2023 10:00:00 AM Eastern Daylight Time Glowing dust and elements display complex structures that are challenging for scientists to explain. The explosion of a star is a dramatic event, but the remains that the star leaves behind can be even more dramatic. A new mid-infrared image from NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope provides one stunning example. It shows the ...Continue Reading
