The James Webb Space Telescope's Near-Infrared Camera (NIRCam) has captured stunning views of Herbig Haro object 797 (HH 797). “Herbig-Haro objects are luminous regions surrounding newborn stars ...

A close-up of two Herbig-Haro (HH) objects found in the Circinus West molecular cloud: HH 76 (above center of image) and HH 77 (lower left). HH objects are glowing red patches of nebulosity ...

But we can see the jets and the lobes. This short-lived phase of a baby star's evolution is known as a Herbig-Haro object, and they are pretty rare. Circinus West, which sits about 2,500 light ...

The NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope has captured twelve interacting galaxies with long, tadpole-shaped tidal tails. These collisions spark star formation, revealing 425 clusters of newborn stars along ...

HH 30 is a rare type of Herbig-Haro object in which the outflowing of gas forms a narrow jet. The jet is surrounded by a wider, cone-shaped envelope of dust and gas. Below that, a wide nebular ...

But we can see the jets and the lobes. This short-lived phase of a baby star's evolution is known as a Herbig-Haro object, and they are pretty rare. Circinus West, which sits about 2,500 light-years ...

Young stars in the process of formation can release extremely hot jets of gas, and when these jets collide with surrounding dust and gas, they form special structures called Herbig-Haro objects with ...

The NASA James Webb Space Telescope's Picture of the spiral galaxy NGC 2090, placed in the constellation Columba. This stunning image, created using data from Webb’s MIRI and NIRCam instruments, ...

Black holes are the hungry monsters of the cosmos: enormously dense objects that can suck in any material which strays too ...

The way that Hubble images are produced is similar to how the James Webb Space Telescope uses filters and combines these to create stunning pictures of otherwise invisible objects, a process which ...
