The largest telescope ever deployed in space, 'James Webb Space Telescope' (JWST) has introduced the world to many unseen pictures of the universe. It started exploring space from July 2022 and has taken hundreds of photographs so far. JWST's latest photo shows a star being born in the universe. This picture is going to arouse curiosity for scientists and people interested in space. This image shows what it is like for a star to be born.

According to BBC report, this protostar named HH12 is located about 1,300 light years away from Earth. Its picture has excited scientists. They feel that this will give new clues about the existence of stars. We will know how stars were formed. According to the report, the star being born is about 50 thousand years old. Its brightness is not visible in the picture because it is hidden inside a disk of gas and dust. Pink colored jets are coming out from it in different directions.

According to reports, this baby star was first discovered near the Orion Belt in 1993. Since then, its photographs have been taken so that it can be known how the star is slowly forming. The picture taken by the James Webb Telescope is important because for the first time scientists have got a good color photo. Scientists say that it was not possible to get such a picture from ground telescopes.

Scientists say that from this picture they will also get clues about the birth of the Sun. It is noteworthy that the James Webb Space Telescope was launched in December 2021. It started its work in space from July 2022. This is the largest and most expensive observatory ever deployed in space.
