Artist’s Impression of a Herbig-Haro Object | European Space Agency

This artist's concept of a Herbig-Haro object shows a jet coming from a young star. Images taken over two decades with the NASA/European Space Agency Hubble Space Telescope have captured the motion of these jets, showing the matter moving over time. This artist's impression shows how the stellar outflows might look over a period of many centuries.
