James Webb continues to delivery breathtaking views, this time capturing two jets of bursting energy from a young star.
of the star releasing two jets of energy outward from itself. The jets are made up of star matter, which is seen blasting outward from the poles of the very young star. Scientists estimate the jets are moving through space at supersonic speeds.Webb scientists named the event Herbig-Haro 211 . The young star that is responsible for the jets is roughly 1,000 light-years away, in the constellation Perseus.
James Webb has observed phenomena like this several times during its tenure observing the universe. The space telescope even spotted our first glimpse at

Webb snaps supersonic outflow of young starNASA's James Webb Space Telescope has captured a high-resolution look at Herbig-Haro 211 (HH 211), a bipolar jet traveling through interstellar space at supersonic speeds. At roughly 1,000 light-years away from Earth in the constellation Perseus, the object is one of the youngest and nearest protostellar outflows, making it an ideal target for Webb.
