@[email protected] A carbon dust shell is a layer of carbon-rich material expelled from a star in it’s later stages of life in which a star ejects these shells due to stellar instability since they are the lighter, outer elements of a star.
It’s cool because JWST could even resolve detail like that!! We can also learn more about the carbon chemistry of the system, binary dynamics, and the history of the system :D
Thank you :)
It can resolve that, but can’t see the secret Nazi bases on the moon? Must be fake.
(I’m joking - this is awesome)
