The American space agency NASA has shared a picture of an amazing space location that looks like a Christmas tree. The cluster of young stars is named NGC 2264, some of which are even more massive than the Sun. NASA experts combined data from the Chandra X-ray Observatory and other telescopes to show the stars in vibrant green. According to NASA, the green color is actually gas, while the blue and white dots are X-rays emitted by young stars. Earlier in November, images from the James Webb Space Telescope and the Hubble Space Telescope were released of the Christmas Tree Galaxy Cluster.
