Greenbelt, United States of America. 02 July, 2022. The first group of photos captured by the NASA Webb Telescope shows side-by-side comparison of the Southern Ring Nebula in near-infrared light, left, and mid-infrared light, right, released from Goddard Space Flight Center July 12, 2022 in Greenbelt, Maryland. This scene was created by a white dwarf star - the remains of a star like our Sun after it shed its outer layers and stopped burning fuel though nuclear fusion. Those outer layers now form the ejected shells all along this view. Credit: NASA/JPL-Caltech/NASA, ESA, CSA, STScI/Alamy Live
