Hubble and Webb Take Closer Look at Planetary Debris Disk around Vega

Webb acquired this image of the circumstellar disk around Vega using the Mid-Infrared Instrument (MIRI). Image credit: NASA / ESA / CSA / STScI / S. Wolff, University of Arizona / K. Su, University of Arizona / A. Gáspár, University of Arizona.
