NASA's James Webb Space Telescope has imaged a nebula that looks strikingly like a giant cat's head, located roughly 7,500 light-years from Earth. The structure was shaped by intense radiation and stellar winds from massive stars, and the glowing gas and dust clouds also hide regions where new stars are forming.
