Hubble spots three young stars going through growth spurts

The trio is shining 500 light-years away from Earth. Breakthroughs, discoveries, and DIY tips sent six days a week. NASA's Hubble Space Telescope has captured a trio of young stars in the process of becoming their best selves in the constellation Scorpius. Posted to the agency's site on January 16 as part of its Hubble Stellar Construction Zones series, the three T Tauri stars--seen at the bottom right, upper center, and left along with many other stellar objects in the background--are forming inside the hazy Lupus 3 cloud about 500 light-years from Earth. While the image appears somewhat serene, the interior forces at play are anything but tranquil.
