James Webb Space Telescope: Dances With Wolf-Rayet Stars

#JWST #jameswebbspacetelescope #astronomy
The James Webb Space Telescope made an astounding observation, delivering spectacular images of a binary star system over 15,000 light years away. It consists of a very rare type of star called a Wolf-Rayet, and a blue super giant. Together they perform a dance of cosmic proportions resulting in massive rings of cosmic dust.

In this video learn about this remarkable astronomical discovery and go deeper into the workings of the James Webb Space Telescope with Professor Brian Keating.
