Description :
(La description de cette image n'existe qu'en anglais) Hubble Peeks into a Stellar Nursery in a Nearby galaxy. The Space Telescope has peered deep into a neighboring galaxy to reveal details of the formation of new stars. Hubble's target was a newborn star cluster within the Small Magellanic Cloud, a small galaxy that is a satellite of our own Milky Way. The new images show young, brilliant stars cradled within a nebula, or glowing cloud of gas, cataloged as N 81.
