This video takes the viewer on a journey through space to the Butterfly Nebula, also called NGC 6302. The Butterfly Nebula, located about 3400 light-years away in the constellation Scorpius, is one of the best-studied planetary nebulae in our galaxy.

The first image that is revealed in this video highlights the bipolar nature of the Butterfly Nebula in optical and near-infrared light captured by the NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope. Then, the new Webb image is overlayed on the centre of the Butterfly Nebula and the viewer is shown a close-up view of this part of the object, providing an unprecedented view of its complex structure. The Webb data are supplemented with data from the Atacama Large Millimetre/submillimetre Array, a powerful network of radio dishes.
