NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope has infrared vision that lets us peer through the dusty veil of nearby star-forming region NGC 1333. We can see planetary mass objects, newborn stars, and brown dwarfs; some of the faintest “stars” in this mosaic image are in fact newly born free-floating brown dwarfs with masses comparable to those of giant planets.
