Nasa has released a spectacular image taken by the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) to mark one year since it began operations in space.
The space agency revealed the colour image on Wednesday, which shows the nearest star-forming region to our own, located 390 light-years away, in the Rho Ophiuchi cloud complex.
Around 50 young stars have been captured in the image, with many of them similar in mass to the Sun.
