NASA's James Webb Space Telescope captures aligned jets image in Serpens Nebula, supporting star formation theories.

NASA's James Webb Space Telescope captures first-of-its-kind image of aligned jets in the Serpens Nebula, supporting theories on star formation. The discovery reveals a group of protostellar outflows, formed when jets of gas from newborn stars collide with nearby gas and dust at high speeds. In this unprecedented image, the jets are aligned in the same direction, shedding light on the fundamental processes of star formation.
