bowl cigar dust entire features history printed resemble rings stars
In this bowl of stars we see the entire star formation history of Orion printed into the features of the nebula: arcs, blobs, pillars, and rings of dust that resemble cigar smoke.
ages calculate general goal history map masses scenario star
Our goal is to calculate the masses and ages for these young stars, so that we can map their history and get a general scenario of the star formation in that region.
ages calculate census dense general goal history hubble including information map masses opportunity provides seeing sizes sort stars study wealth
The wealth of information in this Hubble survey, including seeing stars of all sizes in one dense place, provides an extraordinary opportunity to study star formation. Our goal is to calculate the masses and ages for these young stars so that we can map their history and get a general census of the star formation in that region. We can then sort the stars by mass and age and look for trends.
