NASA said its Webb telescope has observed the little-studied PMR 1, nicknamed the “Exposed Cranium” nebula.
"Nebula PMR 1 is a cloud of gas and dust that bears an uncanny resemblance to a brain in a transparent skull." ...
Researchers reported that this nebula is being formed by a star in the final stages of its life, burning its remaining fuel.
Two heads are better than one in the latest images from NASA's James Webb Space Telescope, which reveal new detail in a mysterious, little-studied nebula surrounding a dying star.
NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope captured PMR 1 in Vela using NIRCam and MIRI, revealing structural layers, stellar winds, and evolutionary details of a planetary nebula.
The unmatched sensitivity of the NASA/ESA/CSA James Webb Space Telescope in both near- and mid-infrared light sheds new light on PMR 1, a little-studied nebula in the constellation of Vela.
