Thanks to the telescope, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nasa.gov\/feature\/goddard\/2023\/nasa-s-webb-snaps-supersonic-outflow-of-young-star\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">NASA has found<\/a> an emerging star, commonly known as a protostar, in the constellation of Perseus, located about 1,000 light-years from Earth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The star is currently <strong>in its class 0 protostar phase, which means it is less than 100,000 years old<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The star doesn&#8217;t have the typical appearance you would expect from an emerging star. Instead of being a glowing, fiery orb of gases like we see in our Sun, protostars often appear as dark voids accompanied by what&#8217;s known as a Herbig-Haro (HH) object.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>HH objects are accumulations of gases emanating from an emerging star, colliding with other gases<\/strong> and dust in the vacuum of space to produce vibrant colors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"NASA\u2019s James Webb Space Telescope Snaps Supersonic Outflow Of Young Star || Herbig-Haro 211\" width=\"840\" height=\"473\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/Ygg7jN_iGEE?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>This HH object is classified as HH 211 and can be seen with its vibrant blue and pink hues<\/strong> as gases are being released by the young star.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It&#8217;s likely that <strong>these gases will continue to stream from the star until just before it reaches its next protostellar phase, Class I, in the distant future<\/strong>. At that point, the star will begin to shine and fuse together as our Sun has done for billions of years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">NASA describes the star and its HH object as a <strong>&#8220;childhood analogue of our Sun when it was just a few tens of thousands of years old.&#8221;<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Currently, it has a mass of only 8% of that of our Sun<\/strong>, but as time goes on, it will grow to become a full-sized star like the Sun.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"sc-card-program\">\r\n  <div
