Hubble Spotlights Newborn Stars in Lupus 3’s Quiet Stellar Nursery

NASA’s Hubble Space Telescope captures Lupus 3, a nearby star-forming molecular cloud in Scorpius, bustling with newborn stars. The multi-wavelength image reveals blue reflection nebulosity and dark dust lanes as T Tauri stars (under 10 million years old) emerge from collapsing gas, illustrating the early stages of stellar birth in this nearby stellar nursery.
