Hubble Telescope spies newborn stars in famous Orion Nebula (photo)

The Hubble Space Telescope captured two young stars named HOPS 150, which glows a bright golden red in the upper-right corner of the image, and HOPS 153, which lies on the left side of the image, represented by a narrow, colourful jet, in the Orion Nebula. .

Two young stars shine bright in the dusty depths of the Orion Nebula in a new Hubble Space Telescope image.

Located about 1,300 light-years from Earth, these young stars, also known as protostars, reside in a hotbed for star formation: the Orion Nebula, which is the nearest massive star-forming region to Earth and is home to hundreds of newborn stars.
