James Webb has captured new images of the Crab Nebula, which could help scientists uncover the supernova remnant's mysterious past.
Scientists really want to understand what happens when a star dies. Sure, we know that supernovas are triggered, and scientists have even watched dying stars explode into supernovas. But, we’re still learning about these cosmic objects. Now, the James Webb space telescope has captured new details about the Crab Nebula, one of the closest supernova remnants we have ever studied.

As you move farther from the core of the Crab Nebula, you can see the way that the filamentary dust edges and moves toward the neutron star’s location.
