$A two-panel image of a supernova remnant. The left panel is labeled “Near-infrared” while the right panel is labeled “Mid-infrared.” At left, a mottled light pinkish-orange oval whose inner edge resembles a string of pearls. Within the oval is a dense blue-green cloud, shaped like a keyhole. Three stars with six-point diffraction patterns surround the oval. The center of the supernova remnant is surrounded by a white box with lines leading to the panel on the right, which shows a bright orange ring with an orange dot in the middle. Text at bottom reads “The observations show a central spot of high-energy emission, the first piece of direct evidence for a neutron star within Supernova 1987A.” Title text in the lower left reads “Uncovering a Central Mystery: Supernova 1987A.”$
