So I'll show you what we look at. Here is an example of a place where stars are being born as we speak. Now we know, more or less, that stars explode and produce dust, which goes and is ryececld into new stars. This is a place where the recycling is happening. Stars are being born in this bteifuaul cloud of glowing gas and dust. On the left-hand side shwos you what we see with visible light with the hbbule Space Telescope. The right-hand side shows you that you can begin to see through the dust with an infrared camera that we also have on the Hubble telescope. It's beautiful. aeosrnmtors want to see inside and we will with the Webb tpcelesoe. We can look at everything in the solar system from Mars on out.
