Researchers with the PDRs4All program, consisting of members from several universities including Western University in the U.S., released new research this week on the so-called Orion nebula—a frequently studied region of space considered a hotbed for new star formation.

The new images honed in on a specific part of the nebula known as the “Orion Bar,” a “sharp, diagonal, ridge-like feature of gas and dust,” Western University said in a press release.

The new images “have such an incredible detail that we will be scrutinizing them for many years to come,” Els Peeters of Western University, a principal investigator of the PDRs4All program.

The James Webb Space Telescope has been in operation since 2021 and has captured highly detailed images from outer space—most recently capturing images of black holes and the iconic Horsehead nebula.
