    Space Telescope Science Institute astronomer and data visualization expert Dr. Catherine Zucker and her colleagues have shown how a chain of events beginning 14 million years ago with a set of powerful supernovae led to the creation of the vast Local Bubble, responsible for the formation of all young stars within 500 light-years of the Sun.

    This figure shows the evolution of the Local Bubble and sequential star formation at the surface of its expanding shell.

    Selected time snapshots (seen from a top-down projection) are shown here. The central figure shows the present day. Stellar cluster tracebacks are shown with the coloured paths.

    Prior to the cluster birth, the tracebacks are shown as unfilled circles meant to guide the eye, since the modelling is insensitive to the dynamics of the gas before its conversion into stars.

    After the cluster birth, the tracebacks are shown with filled circles and terminate in a large dot, which marks the cluster’s current position.
