Cone Nebula is 2 700 light years away and is well-studied. The new picture comes from Very Large Telescope in Chile and shows it in new colors.
NASA unveiled the first full colored image from the James Webb telescope. It shows the galaxy cluster SMACS 0723 (SMACS J0723.3-7327) which acts as a gravitational lens and magnifies light coming from behind.
This is nebula IRAS 05437+2502 captured by Hubble space telescope. Do you see the upside-down V-shape at the top? That seems to be a high speed star passing though the nebula.
Bipolar nebula M2-9 (also Twin Jet Nebula, Minkowski's Butterfly) was created in interaction of two stars thousand years ago. One of the stars is possibly a red giant and its matter is stirred up by the other star in the system.
