Data from Proposal 1238: Sparse Spectral Mapping of NGC 1514 (pdf link because I have been unable to find html equivalents for JWST proposals)
Principal Investigator Dr. Michael E. Ressler of JPL (Jet Propulsion Laboratory)
Planetary nebula NGC 1514 in infrared as revealed by JWST. The two outer dusty rings appear in neutral gray while the interior parts of the nebula are deep red. Because it is infrared light, these colors do not have traditional meanings like they might with visible light, but they are still indicative of the elemental composition and temperature of the material cast off by the central star as it ended its hydrogen fusing stage before transitioning to a white dwarf. I don't personally know how to analyze and determine any specifics, so I'll leave that to the real astronomers...
Processing notes: Observations do not cover the whole image. Empty areas were filled with approximated texture and random noise to greatly reduce visual distraction. These areas can be easily discerned with minimal scrutiny by zooming in and noting the obviously smooth areas. It's never my intention to "fake" any part of my images. These areas are merely added for cosmetic purposes. You can also easily see blank areas because they are devoid of stars and background galaxies. In reality, there are very few (if any) places in the sky without one or the other.
Red: MIRI/F2550W
Yellow-Green: MIRI/F1280W
Cyan: MIRI/F770W
North is about 7.42° counter-clockwise from up.
