NASA's Hubble Telescope has recently captured an image of a newborn star buried in interstellar gases, with massive jets from its two edges reminiscent of a double-edged lightsaber from the 'Star Wars' film. Dr. Jennifer Wiseman commented on this image, stating that the picture of the black clouds with a long spectrum of light among them indicates the birth of a new star system in the Milky Way galaxy. In this context, NASA's website also published an image of the new star's birth, noting that at first glance, this spectrum of light resembles a double-edged sword from 'Star Wars', but in reality, it is the outburst of beams from two corners of a star being born in our galaxy. This newborn star is located 1,300 light-years away from Earth.
