MUNICH, Germany, Feb. 8 (UPI) -- Secrets of a stellar nursery in the Carina Nebula in our Milky Way have been revealed in a new telescope infrared image, European astronomers say.
The cloud of glowing gas and dust is one of the closest incubators of very massive stars to the Earth and includes several of the brightest and heaviest stars known, they said, but many of its secrets are hidden behind thick clouds of dust.
