The space observatory delivers a fascinating view of starbirth to mark one year of operations.
The eye is immediately drawn to the white nebular at centre-left where a relatively young - a few million years old - star called S1 is lighting up everything around it.
LVA 1623 is one such nascent star. It's buried deep within the outflow and is invisible to Webb's infrared eyes. We know it's there, however, because telescopes sensitive at radio wavelengths have seen it. The telescope has other objectives, too, one of which is to show us the detail of how stars are created and how they spawn planets. And it's for this reason that Rho Ophiuchi is a fascinating target for the most powerful observatory in space.
