Isolated young star CX330, illustration. CX330 was first detected as a source of X-ray light in 2009 by NASA's Chandra X-Ray Observatory while it was surveying the bulge in the central region of the Milky Way. A 2016 study found that CX330 is the most isolated young star that has been discovered. Researchers compared NASAs Wide-field Infrared Survey Explorer (WISE) data from 2010 with NASA's Spitzer Space Telescope data from 2007 to come to this conclusion. CX330 is not near any star-forming region. Observations indicate that CX330 was outbursting, meaning it was launching jets of material that collide into the gas and dust around it, causing heating.
