“This image of L1527 gives us an idea of what the Sun and our solar system looked like at an early stage,” say NASA and the European Space Agency (ESA).
A cosmic hourglass around a star that is still in the process of forming… This is the new impressive image captured by the James Webb Space Telescope and released today.
‘L1527’, in the constellation Taurus, is still gathering mass to take its final form. It was captured by the telescope’s NIRCam instrument, since it is only visible in infrared light.
At just 100,000 years old, ‘L1527’ is in its early stages of formation and is unable to generate its own energy.
“This image of L1527 gives us an idea of what the Sun and our solar system looked like at an early stage,” say NASA and the European Space Agency (ESA).
James Webb is the largest and most powerful telescope ever launched into space, a collaboration between the US, European and Canadian space agencies. It is a $10 billion technological masterpiece that was launched about ten months ago and is about 1.5 million kilometers away from Earth.
