Now that you’ve experienced a grand tour of the outer solar system, check out the latest Hubble Space Telescope image of a mesmerizing multiwavelength stellar nursery view. What you’re seeing are two Herbig–Haro objects – HH 1 and HH 2 – located in the constellation Orion around 1250 light-years from Earth.
HH 1 can be seen as the luminous cloud directly above the bright star in the upper right of this image, while HH 2 is the cloud found in the bottom left. What you can’t see is the the young star system responsible for their creation, hidden in the thick clouds of dust at the center of this image. You can see an outflow of gas from one of these stars streaming out from the central dark cloud as a bright jet.
