Hubble Spots Outburst From a Baby Star

The image shows a baby Star that's still in the process of forming as it ejects jets of super heated plasma from its poles , known as a Herbig-Haro object the plasma from the Star is ejected from the poles in tight beams which slam into the molecules of the dust and gas cloud surrounding the Starlet heating them up to provide the coloured beams we see.

This particular Herbig-Haro object is called HH 34, among the most spectacular phenomena we can observe in the Milky Way. But that's not all it is. These fleeting outbursts, which can be observed changing on a scale of Earth years, contain clues that can help us figure out how baby stars are born.

For a Herbig-Haro object to form, there needs to be a specific set of circumstances. It starts with a baby star, known as a protostar. Protostars form from dense clumps of gas and dust in a molecular cloud that collapses under its own gravity. As this celestial cradle spins, protostars start accreting material from the cloud around them.

During this process, the protostar can blast out powerful jets of plasma from its poles. It's thought that some of the material that is swirling around the protostar gets funneled along its magnetic field lines.

These magnetic field lines accelerate particles so that, when the material reaches the poles, it is launched at considerable speeds into space as very tight collimated jets. The insane temperatures involved ionize the material, turning it into plasma.
For a Herbig-Haro object, these jets, traveling at hundreds of kilometers per hour, then slam, hard, into the surrounding molecular cloud. Where these interactions occur, hot temperatures cause the material to glow brightly.

Or it's Aliens sending out the Bat signal ... you decide.

... you decide.

Bifröst?

Beautiful

same as a quasar ?

Kids and their temper tantrums. It must be in it's terrible twos.

There appears to be significant electrical activity going on in that cloud collapsing under its own ‘gravity’ and the spin is they tell me the universe isn’t electrical.

Where are my manners. It’s good to see this being aired on ATS. The smell of dirty laundry is stifling sometimes. Thanks mate.

Truly stunning. Thank you again for an awesome thread.

Obviously, an alien Bat signal....Duh! Lol

So in a few billion years will this form into a possible solar system, If it becomes a big enough sun and planets .
