Starship Asterisk*

What causes the "tails" of the "tadpoles" to bend and sway in different directions? The bends in both structures seem to echo each other. Was it solar winds from different emerging stars affecting the "tails"?

and how to identify those stars in the image where they are digitally removed?

Oh, "stars digitally removed".. I thought they'll say "With JWST piercing through dust using lower infrared vs what Hubble saw in optical light"..

Now that is a neat photo of the Tadpoles! 8-)

The Tadpoles! Stars in the making! Wouldn't it be nice if it didn't
take so long and we could watch them form from from start to
finish? 8-)
