Did you know? Stars have an entire life cycle from birth to death which depends on their sizes.

Stars with larger sizes have a shorter lifespan in comparison to small-sized stars. They are also bound with magnetic fields similar to our planet Earth.

With some facts, check out 5 star formation images by the NASA James Webb Space Telescope.

Protostar L1527: This protostar is found in the Taurus star-forming region located 460 light-years from Earth.

Wolf-Rayet 140: This pair of stars showcases 17 concentric dust rings, Webb’s Mid-Infrared Instrument (MIRI) helped scientists to know more about these rings.

Rho Ophiuchi: It is one of the nearest star-forming regions from Earth and the image showcases active star formation activities.

Orion Bar: It is a nebula showcasing a group of four hot and massive stars also known as the Trapezium Cluster.
