stars are formed in the huge hydrogen clouds. The atoms of this clouds are attracted due to gravity and start to create a bulk. After gaining a certain huge mass, nuclear fusion start in it resulting in transformation of the bulk of matter into a star. Hydrogen clouds came from either explosion of big stars or are present from time immemorible

A nebula is a large cloud that consists of dust and gas. Their massive size can be as wide as a trillion miles. A huge release of gas in the interstellar medium produces the nebula. The material contained in the nebula collapses against itself and stars are formed.

Stars form when a giant cloud of gas and dust called a nebula begins to collapse under the influence of its own gravity. Clumps form within the cloud which will become stars.

Sometimes there is leftover material after the star forms. It orbits the star and eventually gravity may pull these leftovers together to form planets.

Stars form in areas within a galaxy from huge 'clouds' of gas, mainly hydrogen. Gravity condenses the gases until nuclear fusion occurs.
One such area can be seen within the 'Sword' on Orions belt.
