Star called Fomalhaut is 25 light years away and 15 times as bright as our sunIncredible new images from NASA's James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) reveal a solar system in greater detail than ever before. Fomalhaut is a star approximately 25 light years from Earth with a striking surrounding belt of dust that stretches out 14 billion miles. We now know that there are three belts around Fomalhaut: two inner ones that were previously unknown and one outer, previously known. The images also reveal a large dust cloud within the outer ring, which the authors name the 'Great Dust Cloud'. This image shows the star Fomalhaut, which is 15 times as bright as our sun and is located 25 light-years from Earth.
