Optical image (top left) of L1014 shows dust emission and, inset, the protostar. At top right is a 3-color image using the Spitzer data, color-coded by wavelength. At bottom left is the 8-micron-only image, at bottom middle is a near-infrared image from the MMT revealing a scattered light nebula typically seen around young stellar objects, thought to be due to a cavity evacuated by an outflow. Bottom right shows a bipolar outflow. Credit: Tyler Bourke & Tracy Huard (CfA)
