... 2009 August 3 . T Tauri: A Star is Formed . ... Explanation: What does a star look like when it is forming? The prototypical example is the variable star T Tauri , visible as the bright orange star near the image center. The orange star centered in this remarkable telescopic skyview is T Tauri, prototype of the class of T Tauri variable stars. ... To further complicate the picture, infrared observations indicate that T Tauri itself is part of a multiple star system. ... About APOD | ...

... Massive Star Forming Region DR21 in Infrared . ... JPL , Caltech , NASA Explanation: Deep in the normally hidden recesses of giant molecular cloud DR21, a stellar nursery has been found creating some of the most massive stars yet recorded. The orbiting Spitzer Space Telescope 's Infrared Array Camera opened the window into the cloud last year in mid- infrared light. The cloud is opaque to visible light because of dense interstellar dust . ... A Galactic Star Forming Region in Infrared . ...

This image of the region surrounding the reflection nebula Messier 78, just to the north of OrionтАЩs belt, shows clouds of cosmic dust threaded through the nebula like a string of pearls. The submillimeter-wavelength observations, made with the Atacama Pathfinder Experiment (APEX) telescope and shown here in orange, use the heat glow of interstellar dust grains to show astronomers where new stars are being formed. ...

... Our Sun is part of a huge wheel-shaped collection of stars. ... Astronomers have long suspected it was a very massive black hole, and that every galaxy had such a central mass, created early in the history of the universe. ... However, unless that object happens to be headed directly at the black hole (a relatively small target) it will just swing around and fly away again, like a comet making a pass at the Sun. The velocity acquired in falling towards the black hole also helps it escape. ...
