“Fly” through the NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope’s view of the Trifid Nebula. The video “floats” over the ridges of gas and dust and moves up toward Herbig-Haro 399, at the top of a brown cloud that resembles a head with horns.
The thinner, irregular line pointing left formed from the ejections of an actively forming star.
To its left is a small, faint pillar. Much of this pillar’s gas and dust has been blown away, but the densest material at the top persists.
