A JWST wonder, once again! 🔭 This is the image of the NGC-2440 planetary nebula as seen by the JWST one year ago, that I processed last night! Look how wonderful that thing is 😍 And if you zoom on the centre, you can see a little dot which is suspect is the white dwarf! HD:

I'm curious about this MIRI image released last week. The left side of the press image is far wider than Level 3 data perimeters. Does ~40% more data exist in the lower levels for MIRI/IMAGE observations? I've superimposed my processing on right to illustrate the difference.
