A fact from Bok globule appeared on Wikipedia's Main Page in the Did you know? column on 22 January 2005. The text of the entry was as follows: ...that a Bok globule is a dark cloud of dense dust and gas, first observed by astronomer Bart Bok in the 1940s, in which star formation is taking place within the H II region?

Barnard 68 is a Bok Globule

[edit] 3K?

I thought cosmic rays didn't allow clouds to reach 3K. Shouldn't this real ~8K instead?
