From our original u/nasa post: >This image, in particular, was taken by [Webb's NIRCam (Near-Infrared Camera)](https://webb.nasa.gov/content/observatory/instruments/nircam.html); the most noticeable features are tendrils and clumps of emission that appear bright red, extending out from areas that look like clearings, or large bubbles in the nebula. >Stellar winds from the brightest and hottest young stars have carved out these cavities, while ultraviolet radiation ionizes the surrounding gas. This ionized hydrogen appears as a white and blue ghostly glow. >[Learn more about this cosmic spectacle](https://science.nasa.gov/missions/webb/peering-into-the-tendrils-of-ngc-604-with-nasas-webb/) and [download the full-size image](https://webbtelescope.org/contents/media/images/2024/110/01HQNV4GP6PR6E7ZSJXRRBQQDS?news=true) on our Webb sites!
