A stunning view of Titan, Saturn's largest moon, from infrared data acquired with the JWST. The white area near its top are clouds, likely methane, that have formed near its northern lakes region.🙂👇
VDB 123 is a reflection nebula in the Serpens Dark Cloud. Standing in contrast, to the right, is a bright region of orange nebulosity, the Serpens Nebula.🔍🙂

The galaxy is but an ocean of innumerable stars grouped together in clusters. Upon any part of it the telescope is directed, a vast crowd of stars comes into view. Many are rather large and bright, while the number of smaller ones is beyond calculation.
