## Caption

Our #HubbleTopImage features masses of star formation ⭐🏭⁠
⁠
This view of the star formation region N11 was captured by the NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope in 2010. N11 is the second largest star-forming region in our neighbouring galaxy, the Large Magellanic Cloud, and has produced some of the most massive stars known!⁠
⁠
Close up, the billowing pink clouds of glowing gas make N11 resemble a puffy swirl of fairground candy floss 🎡 but from further away, its shape led some observers to nickname it the Bean Nebula. The dramatic and colourful features visible in the nebula are the telltale signs of star formation.⁠
