Webb's Rho Ophiuchi
The Rho Ophiuchi molecular cloud complex is the closest star-forming region to Earth, about 390 light-years away. Webb's NIRCam captured this infrared image, revealing about 50 young stars forming within less than a light-year. These bright young stars show Webb's characteristic diffraction spikes.
