The ethereal star-forming region LH 95 is part of the Large Magellanic Cloud, which is a satellite galaxy of our own Milky Way. Here, low-mass infant stars as well as massive stars reside. The blue haze that engulfs the region highlights how the largest stars within LH 95, some with three times the mass of the Sun, can generate strong stellar winds and high levels of ultraviolet radiation. LH 95 is just one of hundreds of star-forming systems, also called associations, which are located about 16

The color of a star is closely related to its temperature. As the temperature of a star changes, so does its color. This relationship is described by a principle known as Wien's law, which states that the wavelength at which a star emits the most light is inversely proportional to its temperature. When we talk about the color of stars, we often refer to their spectral classification, which is a system that categorizes stars based on their temperatures and spectral features. The most commonly use
