An image of a massive star-forming complex has been obtained

The James Webb Space Telescope has imaged a massive star-forming complex, a region of ionised hydrogen (HII) in the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC). This is reported in a press release on Phys.org.

The massive star-forming complex N79 is a nebula that spans about 1630 light-years in the largely unexplored southwestern region of the BMO. N79 is generally regarded as a younger version of the Tarantula Nebula (30 Goldfish), but its star formation efficiency is twice that of the latter over the last 500,000 years.
