Astronomers have found something amazing. There is a giant cloud of gas and dust near our solar system. This cloud is called Eos. It is huge. It is so big that it looks like 40 full moons in the sky. This cloud is made mostly of molecular hydrogen. This is the stuff that makes stars and planet
Astronomers have recently found a massive molecular cloud lurking near Earth. The cloud, named Eos, is enormous, stretching about 40 moons across. It's roughly 3, 400 times heavier than the sun. Despite its size, it has remained hidden until now. Molecular clouds are crucial for star and planet
