Summary

Description
English: Observations with JWST in mid-infrared of the center of Pismis 24 (inside NGC 6357) reveals many dusty disks of low-mass stars being evaporated by the O-type star HD 319718 (Pismis 24-1).

Hubble did observe other gaseous disks being evaporated in the Pismis 24 star cluster region (so-called "proplyds", Fang et al. 2012).

NASA Spitzer observed similar "dusty tails" in the past in other star-forming regions.
