The MIRI instrument offered new information on the ongoing processes that are leading to the birth of a new star. An accretion disk is barely visible edge-on and is important because the protostar is still absorbing materials from it and planets could form within it in the future. </p><p><a href="https://english.tachyonbeam.com/2024/07/03/a-protostar-observed-forming-inside-the-l1527-molecular-cloud/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">english.tachyonbeam.com/2024/0</span><span class="invisible">7/03/a-protostar-observed-forming-inside-the-l1527-molecular-cloud/</span></a></p>
