The protostar L1527, shown in this image from the NASA/ESA/CSA James Webb Space Telescope, is embedded within a cloud of material that is feeding its growth.

The Protostar Phase The energy generated during the collapse of material during the nebula phase feeds the newly-formed ...

As a protostar amasses more and more gas and dust, its spinning core gets hotter and hotter. Once it accumulates enough mass and reaches millions of degrees, nuclear fusion begins in the core.

Protostar L1527 is smack dab in the middle of this hourglass-shaped cloud of material. NASA, ESA, CSA, and STScI, J. DePasquale (STScI) ...

An incredible image from the James Webb Space Telescope is providing new clues about how stars come into existence. The awe-inspiring snap shows protostar HH 212, located about 1,300 light-years ...

In 'Star Trek: Prodigy,' episode 5, a new kind of warp engine is revealed. Here's what it means, how it's new, and why it's still slower than DISCO.

Good morning. It's March 26, and today's photo comes from the Hubble Space Telescope. It showcases a very young multi-star system known as FS Tau.
