NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope has captured remarkably detailed infrared images of PMR 1, known as the “Exposed Cranium,” a planetary nebula roughly 5,000 light-years away in the constellation Vela. The observations reveal a glowing inner “brain” region surrounded by a hydrogen gas shell, divided by a dark lane of ejected material, providing fresh insight…​NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope has captured remarkably detailed infrared images of PMR 1, known as the “Exposed Cranium,” a planetary nebula roughly 5,000 light-years away in the constellation Vela.
