NASA and ESA's Hubble telescope captured a striking image of N44, a superbubble nebula 160,000 light-years away in the Large Magellanic Cloud. Massive stars blasted away surrounding gas, creating a hollow 210 by 140 light-years wide, ringed by a thick shell where new stars are now forming. A recent study mapped nearly half a million stars there, revealing details about how stars are born.
