The James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) is the most powerful telescope ever built, and it has the ability to see objects in space that are much fainter and more distant than any previous telescope. This means that JWST can see objects that are still forming, like Herbig-Haro 46/47. The photo of the question mark is one of the most striking images ever taken by JWST, and it shows us a new and exciting view of the formation of stars.
It is possible that the question mark shape is also being caused by the gravitational interactions between the two stars. As the stars orbit each other, they are pulling on the surrounding dust and gas. This can cause the gas to become distorted, and it could be this distortion that is causing the question mark shape.
Scientists are still not sure exactly what is causing the question mark shape, but they are excited to learn more about this object. The photo from JWST has given them a new window into the formation of stars, and it is helping them to better understand how stars are born.
