High-activity newborn stars

The Chandra telescope has analyzed the protostars that could not be detected until now.

The protostars are stars that are in the initial phase and that, according to the images taken by Chandra, are not calm bodies. Inside there are large explosions that produce a very hot plasma.

Astronomers have been surprised that protostars are born in cold molecular clouds. Astronomers did not believe that in such a short time they could form such a hot plasma.
