This is an image from JWST’s NIRCam (Near-Infrared Camera). It features the star-forming region NGC 604 and shows how stellar winds from bright, hot, young stars carve out cavities in surrounding gas and dust. The most noticeable features are tendrils and clumps of emission that appear bright red, extending out from areas that look like clearings, or large bubbles in the nebula.

2. It would violate several treaties.
3. The Louisiana Purchase was the sale of land by a colonial power (France). These are sovereign nations.
