Astronomers understand the basics of star formation. It starts in giant molecular clouds when an event — perhaps a nearby supernova or a collision with another cloud — triggers a high-density region to collapse under the force of gravity. The region fragments into individual pockets that eventually contract into stars within a cluster. The moreContinue reading “JWST uncovers how massive star clusters drive galaxy evolution”
