class=\"attachment-1536x1536 size-1536x1536\" alt=\"What looks like a single large, bright star (but is two) shines with bright purple diffraction spikes at the center of a large, diffuse cylinder of gas and dust that is tipped to the right. At the center is a bright pink clumpy cloud that takes up about 25% of the view. The pink region has some holes and diffuse areas. Beyond that are two large rings seen at a roughly 60-degree angle that appear joined at top left and bottom right. The edges are denser, and form shallow V-shapes that go inward. The rings appear orange at top left and bottom right, and are blue at bottom and center right. There is diffuse orange material around the body. The black background of space is speckled with tiny stars and galaxies mostly in blues and yellows. A bigger blue star with spikes is just below and to the left of the central stars, but it is slightly smaller.

He discovered the rings around NGC 1514 in 2010 when he examined the image from NASA\u2019s Wide-field Infrared Survey Explorer (WISE). \u201cWith MIRI\u2019s data, we can now comprehensively examine the turbulent nature of this nebula,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>This scene has been forming for at least 4,000 years \u2014 and will continue to change over many more millennia.

As a white dwarf star, its winds both sped up and weakened, which might have swept up material into thin shells.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Image A: Planetary Nebula NGC 1514 (MIRI Image)<\/h2>\n<div class=\"hds-media hds-module wp-block-image\">\n<div class=\"margin-left-auto margin-right-auto nasa-block-align-wide\">\n<div class=\"hds-media-wrapper margin-left-auto margin-right-auto\">\n<figure class=\"hds-media-inner hds-cover-wrapper hds-media-ratio-fit \"><a href=\"https:\/\/assets.science.nasa.gov\/dynamicimage\/assets\/science\/missions\/webb\/science\/2025\/webb-STScI-01JR92AWMGEQPXGRBKDS6Q941D-2K.tif?w=2315&#038;h=2278&#038;fit=clip&#038;crop=faces%2Cfocalpoint\" rel=\"noopener\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"2315\" height=\"2278\" src=\"https:\/\/assets.science.nasa.gov\/dynamicimage\/assets\/science\/missions\/webb\/science\/2025\/webb-STScI-01JR92AWMGEQPXGRBKDS6Q941D-2K.tif?w=2315&#038;h=2278&#038;fit=clip&#038;crop=faces%2Cfocalpoint\" class=\"attachment-2048x2048 size-2048x2048\" alt=\"What looks like a single large, bright star (but is two) shines with bright purple diffraction spikes at the center of a large, diffuse cylinder of gas and dust that is tipped to the right.

Look for hints of its pinched waist near top left and bottom right, where the dust is orange and drifts into shallow V-shapes.<\/p>\n<p>What might explain these contours? \u201cWhen this star was at its peak of losing material, the companion could have gotten very, very close,\u201d Jones said. \u201cThat interaction can lead to shapes that you wouldn\u2019t expect. Instead of producing a sphere, this interaction might have formed these rings.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Though the outline of NGC 1514 is clearest, the hourglass also has \u201csides\u201d that are part of its three-dimensional shape. Look for the dim, semi-transparent orange clouds between its rings that give the nebula body.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">A Network of Dappled Structures<\/h2>\n<p>The nebula\u2019s two rings are unevenly illuminated in Webb\u2019s observations, appearing more diffuse at bottom left and top right. They also look fuzzy, or textured. \u201cWe think the rings are primarily made up of very small dust grains,\u201d Ressler said. \u201cWhen those grains are hit by ultraviolet light from the white dwarf star, they heat up ever so slightly, which we think makes them just warm enough to be detected by Webb in mid-infrared light.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>In addition to dust, the telescope also revealed oxygen in its clumpy pink center, particularly at the edges of the bubbles or holes.<\/p>\n<p>NGC 1514 is also notable for what is absent. Carbon and more complex versions of it, smoke-like material known as polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, are common in planetary nebulae (expanding shells of glowing gas expelled by stars late in their lives). Neither were detected in NGC 1514. More complex molecules might not have had time to form due to the orbit of the two central stars, which mixed up the ejected material. A simpler composition also means that the light from both stars reaches much farther, which is why we see the faint, cloud-like rings.<\/p>\n<p>What about the bright blue star to the lower left with slightly smaller diffraction spikes than the central stars? It\u2019s not part of this nebula. In fact, this star lies closer to us.<\/p>\n<p>This planetary nebula has been studied by astronomers since the late 1700s. Astronomer William Herschel noted in 1790 that NGC 1514 was the first deep sky object to appear genuinely cloudy \u2014 he could not resolve what he saw into individual stars within a cluster, like other objects he cataloged. With Webb, our view is considerably clearer.<\/p>\n<p>NGC 1514 lies in the Taurus constellation approximately 1,500 light-years from Earth.<\/p>\n<p>The James Webb Space Telescope is the world\u2019s premier space science observatory. Webb will solve mysteries in our solar system, look beyond to distant worlds around other stars, and probe the mysterious structures and origins of our universe and our place in it. Webb is an international program led by NASA with its partners, ESA (European Space Agency) and the Canadian Space Agency.<\/p>\n<p>To learn more about Webb, visit: <a
