﻿1
00:00:00,916 --> 00:00:04,516
Inside the Carina Nebula
is a long, thin structure

2
00:00:04,766 --> 00:00:06,850
nicknamed the Cat's Head.

3
00:00:10,950 --> 00:00:13,133
NASA's Hubble Space Telescope

4
00:00:13,133 --> 00:00:15,383
highlights the dark, dense dust

5
00:00:15,600 --> 00:00:18,116
against a colorful gas backdrop.

6
00:00:20,000 --> 00:00:22,383
That same dust shines brightly

7
00:00:22,383 --> 00:00:25,016
in mid-infrared light, as observed

8
00:00:25,016 --> 00:00:27,550
by the James Webb Space Telescope.

9
00:00:28,916 --> 00:00:31,066
Webb's near-infrared view

10
00:00:31,066 --> 00:00:32,866
pierces through the nebula

11
00:00:32,866 --> 00:00:35,583
to see the multitude of stars beyond.

12
00:00:37,950 --> 00:00:39,466
Along the right side,

13
00:00:39,466 --> 00:00:42,300
brilliant yellow emission
shows that the dust

14
00:00:42,300 --> 00:00:45,700
is being heated and ionized by hot stars.

15
00:00:46,966 --> 00:00:49,166
And on the left, Webb finds a series

16
00:00:49,166 --> 00:00:51,466
of background dust pillars

17
00:00:51,466 --> 00:00:53,933
not observable with visible light.

18
00:00:56,033 --> 00:00:58,183
The eye of the cat's head
appears to be 

19
00:00:58,183 --> 00:01:00,650
a newborn star, still shrouded

20
00:01:00,650 --> 00:01:03,050
within the gas and dust
from which it formed.

21
00:01:04,950 --> 00:01:07,100
Together, Hubble and Webb reveal

22
00:01:07,100 --> 00:01:09,716
contrasting and complementary views

23
00:01:09,716 --> 00:01:11,816
of this fascinating object.
