In the center of star-forming region 30 Doradus lies a huge cluster containing some of the largest, hottest, and most massive stars known. These stars, known collectively as star cluster R136, were captured in the featured image in visible light by the Wide Field Camera 3 in 2009 peering through the Hubble Space Telescope. Gas and dust clouds in 30 Doradus, also known as the Tarantula Nebula, have been sculpted into elongated shapes by powerful winds and ultraviolet radiation from these hot cluster stars. The 30 Doradus Nebula lies within a neighboring galaxy known as the Large Magellanic Cloud and is located a mere 170,000 light-years away.

在星際形成區域30 Doradus的中心，存在著一個巨大的星團，包含了一些已知最大的、最熱的和最重的恆星。這些恆星被稱為星團R136，於2009年由哈勃太空望遠鏡的寬場攝影機3 (Wide Field Camera 3) 捕捉到的可見光影像。30 Doradus內的氣體和塵埃雲，以「塔蘭圖拉星雲」(Tarantula Nebula) 聞名，因為這些熱星團的強風和紫外線輻射而雕塑出細長的形狀。30 Doradus星雲位於鄰近的星系──大麥哲倫雲 (Large Magellanic Cloud) 內，距離我們只有約170,000光年。
