2023 November 23 - Along the Taurus Molecular Cloud
In today's image, we see the region around the Taurus molecular cloud, near the bright star Aldebaran in the sky. In this region, we see Herbig-Haro objects which are regions excited by jets of material from young forming stars. In addition, we see the star T Tauri - a sunlike star, but only a few million years old. This gives us a glimpse of what our Sun might have been like shortly after it formed.
