The H2 Glow of a Quiescent Molecular Cloud Observed with JWST

We report JWST MIRI/MRS observations of the H _2 S (1) 17.04 μ m transition in two regions in the boundary of the Taurus molecular cloud. The two regions, denoted “Edge” (near the relatively sharp boundary of the ^13 CO J  = 1 → 0 emission) and “Peak” (the location of the strongest H _2 emission obs...
