As reported by Ukrinform, this was reported by the observatory.

Dense cores such as CB 130-3 are the birthplace of stars and are therefore of particular interest to astronomers.

As these cores collapse, enough mass can build up in one place to reach the temperatures and densities needed to ignite hydrogen fusion, which marks the birth of a new star.

In this image, it is indicated that the density of CB 130-3 is not constant.

Thus, the outer edges of the cloud consist of only thin rays, while in its center the CB 130-3 completely suppresses the background light. The gas and dust that make up CB 130-3 affect not only the brightness but also the color of the background stars. Also, the stars in the center of the cloud appear redder than their counterparts at the edges of this image.

Astronomers used the telescope to measure this glow effect and the intensity of CB 130-3, providing insight into the inner structure of this stellar nursery.

As Ukrinform reports, the NASA/ESA Hubble space telescope photographed large-scale “yellow-blue” spiral galaxy NGC 7038 in the Indianus constellation, thanks to its Wide Field Camera 3 camera.
