Where Stars Go to Die
When a star dies, it creates a black hole. Nothing can escape a black hole-not even light. We can't see black holes. They still hold many mysteries in their depths. But there are clues that scientists use to detect them. The James Webb Space Telescope can find signs of an active black hole. What it sees gives researchers a clearer view of what happens after a star reaches the end of its life. Take a closer look at what the largest and most powerful space telescope ever made has shown us.
From new stars to black holes to never-before-seen galaxies, the James Webb Space Telescope is revealing new secrets every day.
