Star Formation in 8K UHD by James Webb Space Telescope JWST

On July 12, 2022 James Webb Space Telescope presented new astonishing images of space and galaxies in 8K UHD resolution. Telescope made several images of space around us in visible light spectrum as well as in infrared. Scientific results allow to understand how stars are forming and what components are needed for this process. JWST used equipment to made these images: Near-Infrared Camera (NIRCam) and Mid-Infrared Instrument (MIRI). Bubbles and cavities on presented images are being blown by the intense radiation and stellar winds of newborn stars.
