Introduction
• Nebula are clouds of ionized hydrogen gas
• Large regions of star formation

Introduction
• Dark nebula are similar to reflection nebula
• Can only be seen due to the fact that they block out light

Literature Review
• Red and Nebulous Objects in Dark Clouds
• Search for protostars and T Tauri stars previously missed by Herbig and Rao

Literature Review
• An optical survey to look for star formation in Lynds Dark Clouds
• Ratio of Class 0 to Class I protostars was found to be about 1:1, very different from previous 1:10 ratio

Purpose
The purpose of my project is to study star formation in dark nebulae using color-color plots and spectral energy distribution charts to classify and identify young stars.
