An ethereal hourglass of orange and blue dust is being shot out from a newly forming star in the sky.
NASA and the European Space Agency said in a statement that the colorful clouds had never been seen before by a camera.
There is a young star hidden in darkness by the edge of a rotating disk of gas.
Light pours out from the top and bottom of the disk.
The statement said the clouds were created by material ejected from the star. The blue and orange areas have the same amount of dust.
At the earliest stage of star formation, the Protostar is unable to generate its own energy.
The statement said that the black disk will feed material to the star until it reaches the threshold for nuclear fusion.
The view of L1527 provides a glimpse into what the Sun and Solar System looked like in their early days.
The star is located in a stellar nursery that contains hundreds of stars.
The most powerful space telescope ever built has been operational since July and has already unleashed a raft of unprecedented data.
A new era of discovery is what scientists are hoping for.
The life cycle of stars is one of the goals of the telescope. exoplanets are planets outside the solar system.
