==========
NASA frequently shares captivating pictures of star-forming regions in the universe. Here are 10 striking images captured by NASA's Hubble Space Telescope: 1. The heart of the Trifid Nebula, a star-forming region within the Milky Way Galaxy, at a distance of about 9,000 light-years. 2. The Orion Nebula, the closest star-forming region to Earth, at a distance of about 1,500 light-years. 3. The star-forming region known as IRAS 16562-3959 within the constellation Scorpius. 4. The Sharpless 2-106 Nebula, nearly 2,000 light-years from Earth, featuring an hourglass shape formed by rings of dust. 5. The star-forming region G35.2-0.7N, showing a powerful protostellar jet formed by beams of matter ejected from young stars. 6. The Lagoon Nebula, featuring intense winds and hot clouds of gas emitted from star formation. 7. A cosmic reef, part of a vast star-forming region with massive stars 10-20 times the size of the sun. 8. A pillar of gas and dust in the Carina Nebula, a vast star-forming region. 9. The star-forming region 30 Doradus, featuring hundreds of sparkling blue stars amidst gas and dust. 10. The Horsehead Nebula, featuring a pillar of hydrogen gas and dust. These images offer a visual spectacle and showcase the beauty of star formation in the universe.
