NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope has unveiled a breathtaking cosmic landscape that looks more like a scene from fantasy than reality. What appears to be a glowing mountain peak shrouded in mist is actually a massive field of dust and gas, sculpted by intense radiation and fierce stellar winds from newly formed stars. This region, called Pismis 24, sits within the Lobster Nebula about 5,500 light-years away in the constellation Scorpius.
