A galaxy that sits 8,000 light-years away from Earth is setting off ‘firework streamers’ of gas in honor of the birth of a giant cluster. Using the Actacama Large Millimeter/submillimetter Array, the team was able to witness gas forming individual stars. NASA's Hubble Telescope also took a look, revealing a large group of stars bursting out from one side of the cloud. The dense clouds made of molecular gas are shown in bright purple and the telescope captured gas falling into the cluster and forming cores that develop into individual stars.
