Its dense cloud of gas and dust make its interior invisible to optical telescopes. Images in the infrared show a bright young stellar object, with an associated reflection nebula seen as a glowing cone projecting from the young star. A cluster of stars is forming within the molecular cloud, but most of the infrared radiation is coming from this star, AFGL 2591-VLA3.[6] Initially AFGL 2591 was thought to be a single young, massive star expelling clouds of gas and dust in multiple events. It was estimated to be about 10 times the mass of the sun and at a distance of only {{convert|1000|pc|ly|abbr=off}}.[1] References1. ^{{cite web |title=Gemini Spies Strong Stellar Gusts in Nearby Massive Star |url=http://www.gemini.edu/node/48 |date=23 July 2001 |publisher=Gemini Observatory |accessdate=28 April 2014}} [2][3]2. ^1 2 {{cite journal |last1=Sanna |first1=A. |last2= Reid |first2=M.
