Right. After the initial "wow factor" has settled down, what's been most striking to me is the level of detail that's no longer obscured by gas and dust in these nebulae due to MIRI. I know very little about the study of stellar nurseries or planetary nebulae but I've seen enough pre-JWST images of them to know that astrophysicists just got a whole lot to sink their teeth into and I look forward to seeing further developments as more data is collected and existing data is studied.
