The Story
The Tarantula Nebula (NGC 2070) is a vast star-forming region in the Large Magellanic Cloud, a satellite galaxy of the Milky Way. Stretching some 340 lightyears across, this mosaic from the James Webb Space Telescope’s Near-Infrared Camera shows the core of hot young stars just right of center, framed by the nebula’s cooler gas and dust.
This richly colored, high-resolution image includes 500 pieces and measures 15" x 21" upon completion. Included is a bonus poster for reference during assembly.
