Cosmic blooms! 🌸
These flower-like images from Hubble and @NASAWebb show the dying star Wolf-Rayet 124 as it casts off outer layers of material.
Wolf-Rayet stars are among the most luminous, massive, and briefly detectable stars known.
#Hubble
Hubble's view features observations taken in the visible light spectrum, which is what our human eyes can detect.
At a distance of 15,000 light-years, this star has the mass of 30 Suns... and has already shed 10 Suns' worth of material! go.nasa.gov/3Z4kZ6x

A Hubble Cosmic Couple
Here we see the spectacular cosmic pairing of the star Hen 2-427 — more commonly known as WR 124 — and the nebula M1-67 which surrounds it.NASA
Webb's new view shows the same object in infrared, which is ideal for studying cosmic dust – and WR 124 is producing a lot of dust!
With this new data, astronomers can explore questions of cosmic dust production in environments like WR 124. go.nasa.gov/3ZQqo1W
