      Hi Shea. Stars form from clouds of gas that is pulled together by gravity to form stars and planets.

      Hi shea!

      Here are some baby stars in the Maggelan clouds, that our Hubble space telescope has photographed recently!

      It also explains star formation underway there at the moment!
      🙂
