NUCLEARHYDROGEN

The James Webb Space Telescope has observed a remarkable stellar jet, measuring eight light-years in length, erupting from a massive protostar located in the Sharpless 2-284 nebula. This jet, moving at hundreds of thousands of miles per hour, offers new insights into star formation in low-metallicity environments, challenging existing theories about how massive stars develop. Researchers believe the findings could enhance our understanding of early cosmic history and the role of massive stars in galactic evolution.
