Description

Due to the bad weather, a new processing exercise from the JWST and the MIRI Cam.
The supernova remnant Cassiopeia A (Cas A), which was formed by a stellar explosion approximately 340 years ago. It is the youngest known remnant of an exploding, massive star in our galaxy. The distance is around 11,000 light years and the diameter is 10 light years. I used all 7 narrow band filters that were available.
