Webb First to Show 4 Dust Shells 'Spiraling' Apep, Limits Long Orbit by NASA's James Webb Space Telescope

Webb refined our view of a star system called Apep, named after the Egyptian god of chaos. Apep was thought to consist solely of two Wolf-Rayet stars, which are a rare class of massive, evolved, luminous stars. Only 1000 are estimated to exist in our galaxy, out of hundreds of billions. To have found a system with two of them is exceedingly rare, and it’s the only known one in our galaxy.
