    Strong Stellar Gusts in Nearby Massive Star | A massive, young star named AFGL 2591 expels periodic bursts of gas and dust in this image from the Gemini North telescope on Hawaii's Mauna Kea. This expulsion is a common feature in the formation of stars similar in size to the Sun, but it is far less common in their massive counterparts.
