NASA's Hubble Space Telescope captured a triple-star system featuring T Tauri stars, offering a glimpse into early star development.

NASA's Hubble Space Telescope captured a stunning image of a triple-star system 550 light-years away, featuring the variable star HP Tau, HP Tau G2, and HP Tau G3. These stars are set against a reflection nebula, resembling a cosmic geode, and are classified as T Tauri stars, which are less than 10 million years old. This system offers astronomers a rare glimpse into the early stages of star development and evolution.
