Final JWST NIRCam and MIRI images. Top left: NIRCam F150W data, at native ∼0.05″ resolution. The mid-plane shows conspicuous absorption. The background in that band shows large discrepancies, due to the difficulty to correct for both large structure stripes and offsets between the individual dithers. The small squares are gaps in the dither-pattern coverage. Top right: NIRCam F277W data, at native ∼0.092″ resolution. Some absorption is visible in the mid-plane, and the image shows a much smoother background than for the F150W mosaic. Bottom: MIRI F770W data, at native ∼0.25″ resolution, with radial distance indicators at 1, 2, 5, and 10 kpc from the mid-plane. The mid-IR image shows many filamentary structures as far out as ∼4 kpc.
