Young protostars populate the cloudy regions in the Orion Molecular Cloud complex in these images from the Hubble Space Telescope.

Scientists know that these young stars have powerful stellar winds and jets that carve caverns and bubbles out of the surrounding gas, but they have unanswered questions about that process.
