Hidden Views of Vast Stellar Nurseries | European Southern Observatory
ESOcast 262 Light: Using the European Southern Observatory's VISTA telescope, astronomers have created a vast infrared atlas of five nearby stellar nurseries by piecing together more than one million images. These large mosaics reveal young stars in the making, embedded in thick clouds of dust. Thanks to these observations, astronomers have a unique tool with which to decipher the complex puzzle of stellar birth.
