Regions in which stars are created are often covered by clouds of gas and dust. A new 3D map shows exactly what it might look like there.
With the new three-dimensional map more precise, scientists can better understand how the giant stars of the class "energy the gas" in the Milky Way, helping to study these nebulous areas.
Make Like A Spacecraft And Fly Through Gaia’s 3D Map Of Stellar Nurseries
Here we fly through Gaia’s new 3D map of stellar nurseries. This new map includes 3D-views of the Gum Nebula, the North American Nebula, the California Nebula, and the Orion-Eridanus superbubble. It allows us to fly around, through, and above these areas containing stellar nurseries. At the end of the animation, we arrive at our Sun.

A 3D Map of Stellar Nurseries in The Milky Way | ESA Gaia Space Telescope
A 3D Map of Stellar Nurseries in The Milky Way | ESA Gaia Space TelescopeScientists have created the most accurate three-dimensional map of star-formation regions in our Milky Way galaxy, based on data from the European Space Agency’s Gaia space telescope. This map will teach us more about these obscure cloudy areas, and the hot young stars that shape them.It is notoriously difficult to map and study regions in space where stars form because the…
