Clouds or morning fog may obscure the event. Find a higher spot with a clear view of the horizon. Nearby hills or mountains could hide the event, so the clearer, the better.
Just 500 light years away, the Chamaeleon Complex, and in particular its dark cloud Chamaeleon I, is a hotbed of young, ...

The cloud, named Eos, is chock-full of molecular hydrogen and possibly rife with star-forming potential in the future. By Katrina Miller Stars and planets are born inside swirling clouds of cosmic ...
The data had been publicly released in 2023, and Burkhart spotted the glowing cloud soon after. “It was kind of like just waiting to be explored,” she said. Molecular clouds are the raw material of ...
A near-complete census of our interstellar neighborhood hopes to answer how stars, brown dwarfs and rogue planets form ...
Researchers have found that stars in the early universe may have formed from 'fluffy' molecular clouds. Using the ALMA telescope to observe the Small Magellanic Cloud -- whose environment is ...
Molecular clouds are composed of gas and dust and serve a vital purpose in star formation. Eos, a crescent-shaped gas cloud, is located about 300 light years away from Earth and is the size of 40 ...
