The birth of a star is captured in a "snapshot in time" by NASA, which was taken in the vicinity of the Cosmic Cliffs.

A "hotbed for star formation." can be found in the Cosmic Cliffs, but it is obscured by clouds of dust. This unexplained phenomenon has been a source of fascination for astronomers for many years. You too are able to witness the birth of a star thanks to the James Webb Telescope, which is operated by NASA.

For many years, researchers have focused their attention on The Cliffs, a region of space that is located within the NGC 3324 star cluster and is described by NASA as being "at the edge of a gigantic, gaseous cavity" However, it wasn't until scientists were able to view it with the Webb Telescope that they were able to discover some of the more intricate characteristics.
