Discover the mysterious pink cloud that is giving birth to a new 'super Sun'

According to a statement from NASA, the bright pink magic cloud is called LHA 120-N 150, located in the Large Magellanic Cloud, the neighbor of the galaxy containing the Milky Way Earth.

The strange object is not a cloud like the clouds of the earth, but a giant cosmic cloud of dust and gas, a "star-forming cloud". Inside the pink cloud, NASA found a series of young stars in the birth stage.

Although young, but they are the giant stars, much larger than our sun, a type of "super star", "super sun". Like other stars born in the universe, it can experience a lonely life or the mother of a planetary system like the sun.

This mysterious pink cloud is part of the Tarantula Nebula , a giant structure up to 1,000 light-years long, the closest known "star nursery" to Earth, 160,000 light-years from us.

According to NASA, the discovery of the pink cloud and its birth giants are an excellent opportunity for research on the formation and development of giant stars.

What happens inside the LHA 120-N 150 pink cloud is also new. According to astronomical theory, such massive stars should form in star clusters, rather than in an odd cloud, isolated from the owner nebula.

Most of these "super Suns" are still in a period when you look at them, you see only a huge and dense mass of dust, which is a mixture of some young star objects, cosmic dust and many stuff not classified. Astronomers are now digging deeper into the spectacular images Hubble has taken of the pink cloud in hopes of finding out the true nature of these incredible stars.
