An image from JWST of the Helix Nebula. Glowing clouds of golden/orange gas and dust, packed into uneven, finger like shapes that fill most of the frame. Near the center and top, the clouds thin into a dark background scattered with stars and galaxies. Bright blue-white stars punctuate the scene, standing out sharply against the glowing nebula and deep space.
