These results are crucial in massive star formation and the findings suggest that massive young stars form and launch jets similar to low mass stars like our Sun! 3/3

This image from the paper shows a massive young star - it's seven times the mass of our Sun but only 30,000 years old! It's in the centre of the image in blue with outflows in red and green.
