Star Forming Region NGC 3582

Accretion Disk A rotating disk of gas and dust matter that may form around any of a variety of stars or other massive objects. In the case of young stars, accretion disks contain unconsolidated material, such as cosmic dust grains, which may subsequently accrete to form planets and other sizable objects

The Beginning – A Protostar A star's life is a constant battle against gravity, the force that wants to compress it, and pressure support which is trying to hold it up. That battle begins as soon as a molecular cloud begins to collapse into a protostar.
