“If we could take a baby picture of our Sun, it might look something like this. 👶”
Nagbahagi ang National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) ng isang larawan ng newborn star na ilang libong taon lamang umano ang tanda, at sa pagtagal ay magiging kamukha raw ng araw.
“Seen in this @NASAWebb image is a newborn star with supersonic jets of gas spewing from its poles,” saad ng NASA sa isang Instagram post.
Ayon pa sa NASA, tinatawag na Herbig-Haro objects ang maliliwanag na rehiyon na nakapaligid sa newborn stars.

“This specific Herbig-Haro object is called Herbig-Haro (HH) 211. At roughly 1,000 light-years away from Earth, it’s one of the youngest and nearest objects of its type,” paliwanag ng NASA.
Nalilikha umano ang Herbig-Haro object tuwing nakabubuo ng shockwaves ang jets ng gas mula sa newborn star habang bumabangga sa nakapalibot na gas at alikabok.
“Webb’s sensitive infrared vision can pierce through the gas and dust, picking up on the heat emissions from the star’s outflows and mapping out structure in unprecedented detail,” anang NASA.
“Interestingly, Webb observations have also shown that the outflows from this object are slower in comparison to that of more developed baby stars,” saad pa nito.
