James Webb Space Telescope captures the image a very young neutron star

SN 1987A was one of the few supernovae that people could see with naked eyes . It was first observed in February 1987 and is situated in the Large Magellanic Cloud 1,60,000 light years away. A star of about 19 times the mass of the Sun had exploded to form a neutron star of mass 1.4 times (estimated) that of the Sun. While there were theoretical models and indirect evidence of the the formation of neutron star was there, using James Webb telescope, the scientists were able to observe direct evidence of the presence of a probable neutron star.    Image source: https://webbtelescope.org/contents/news-releases/2024/news-2024-112
