The Large Magellanic Cloud, or LMC, is a key spot for astronomers to study star formation.

Webb data explains how heat-formed crystal minerals end up in icy comets by tracking their journey around a young, actively forming star.

Astronomers have discovered a vast, dense cluster of massive galaxies just 1 billion years after the Big Bang, each forming ...

New images taken by NASA's James Webb Space Telescope show young stars forming within a "toe bean" on the Cat's Paw Nebula. The Cat's Paw Nebula is named after its resemblance to a feline footprint: ...
