  1. An image captured by the James Webb Telescope shows NGC 6537 — the Red Spider Nebula, revealing never-before-seen details in this picturesque planetary nebula with a rich backdrop of thousands of stars. Planetary nebulae like the Red Spider Nebula form when ordinary stars like the Sun reach the end of their lives. This phase of a star’s life is as fleeting as it is beautiful, lasting only a few tens of thousands of years. via NASA/ESA/CSA
