An article published in the journal “Nature” reports the results of observations of the very young TW Hydrae system in which for the first time the columns of materials that contribute to the formation of new stars have been directly observed. A team of researchers part of the GRAVITY collaboration that runs the instrument with that name mounted on ESO’s VLTI in Chile used it to obtain the best details ever studying TW Hydrae. This star has yet to complete its formation, so these observations provide new details on those processes.
