STELLAR NURSERY - Piano Solo from STORIES OF STARS, VOLUME 1

Pages: 2

In some regions of interstellar clouds, like the Lagoon Nebula, there are dense
pockets of gas and dust called star-forming regions. These regions can be
thought of as stellar nurseries, where the environment is generally peaceful at
first as clumps contract down to form baby stars. Then there is some “crying
out” in the form of energetic radiation emissions when the lower-mass stars
emerge from their dusty cocoons. In the end, though, the bigger star-babies
disrupt the entire system by blowing out all of the gas and dust from the
nursery.
