About 160,000 years ago, a star exploded. 🌟 It left behind these spectacular remains, imaged here in multiple wavelengths by Hubble and other observatories. Once NASAWebb starts science operations, it will observe the iconic remnants of Supernova 1987A, too! With its powerful infrared vision, Webb will study SN1987A’s dust to find out more about its its composition, temperature, and density.
