Mikko Tuomi | There are about half a million # stars in this # JWST view of our galactic centre. A vast region of ionized # hydrogen , shown in cyan, wraps around an infrared-dark cloud, which is so dense that it blocks the light from distant stars behind it. Intriguing needle-like structures in the ionized hydrogen emission lack any uniform orientation. # astronomy # astrophotography https:// webbtelescope.org/contents/med ia/images/2023/148/01HF7NQKFCWPXHB5MT68G7Z2ED
