This video takes the viewer on a journey through space to reveal a new image from the NASA/ESA/CSA James Webb Space Telescope, the Horsehead Nebula.

This zoom video features three unique views of the Horsehead Nebula, including images from as ESA’s Euclid telescope, the NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope’s infrared view of the object, and finally revealing the new image from Webb’s NIRCam (Near-InfraRed Camera) instrument. It is the sharpest infrared image of the object to date, showing a part of the iconic nebula in a whole new light, and capturing its complexity with unprecedented spatial resolution. You can learn more about this new image here.

  1. The Horsehead Nebula in the constellation Orion is part of a large, dark, molecular cloud. The red glow is caused by its dominant hydrogen, ionized by the nearby bright star Dogma Orionis. The Black Head owes its blackness mainly to a thick layer of dust. A strong magnetic field sets the direction for the flow of gas leaving the nebula. The bright spots at the base of the Horsehead are young stars still in the formative stage. Light from the Horsehead Nebula takes about 1,500 years to reach us.
