The image above shows part of our Milky Way. This image was retrieved from analyzing IRAS data. The center of the image is the diffused nebula called "NGC 7822." Gas and dust cloud regions are also found in the image. A great number of new stars are forming in this region. These stars are extremely bright, exceeding the sun's brightness by thousands of times.
