Original Description:
Newly forming stellar system often go through a period in which gas is ejected from the core of the system in two opposite directions. Systems undergoing this phase are referred to as bi-polar outflow sources. Two such sources are featured these VRML visualizations of molecular gas caught up in the outflow:
Variations on these visualizations with different iso-surface levels can be accessed from the Project Pages for the studies of the Orion Molecular Cloud and NGC 2024 that resulted in this data.
