Photo of a star system with pink-hued concentric rings of dust emanating from it in waves.ALT
Text that reads: "This is not a special effect or a problem with the mirrors of the James Webb Space Telescope; it wasn’t added in post-production. It’s real. Isn’t that wild? It’s a pair of stars 5600 light years away called WR 140, surrounded by concentric shells of dust. Once every eight years or so, the two stars swing close to one another in their orbits and their stellar winds interact, and they puff out a cloud of dust like a smoke ring. The shells extend more than 10 trillion kilometres from the stars – about 70,000 times the distance between Earth and the sun. They’re expanding outwards at nearly 10 million kilometres per hour. Like I said, wild."ALT

this is so cool are u guys seeing this!!!!!

Star Duo Forms ‘Fingerprint’ in Space, NASA’s Webb Finds
A new image shows at least 17 dust rings created by a rare type of star and its companion locked in a celestial dance.

I love how humans discover this rare new sight in far distant space, and immediately go “That looks like a part of me.” A vast dust cloud from an ancient star, and we see … the tips of our fingers.

Good ol’ humans, always making things relatable.

(Anyway it also looks like the rings of a tree.)
