Maybe with so many images of the same object around they _have_ to resort to some extra code in the filenames, I mean how many images of Neptune are around, thousands if not more?

They can almost see back to the very first stars by using foreground Abell galaxy clusters as magnifying lenses (and accepting a lot of distortion).

Like say the file names in unix world, they are case sensitive - which is OK as long as they are not meant for humans, which of course they are.

The Wikipedia article claims that the periodic bands are shells of matter expulsed by periodic He fusion oscillations at an 8 year period, whereas the description with the JWST picture says it's a binary star with that period. I suppose the periodic bands would be a flat spiral then instead of a series of concentric shells. It's hard to be sure, but it looks like the bands are concentric. Jeroen Belleman

I think the latter explanation is much more plausible and fits with observations in the X-ray here: https://academic.oup.com/pasj/article/67/6/121/2470041> > I suppose the periodic bands would be a flat spiral then instead of > a series of concentric shells.

When the two stars are at their closest their strong solar winds tear across their surfaces and the weaker one loses lots of material. Weaker probably meaning the one with lowest surface gravity FWIW I see concentric shells of material too. Slightly odd shape though - I'd expected an oval symmetry like with planetary nebulae like M57. -- Regards, Martin Brown
