On the basis of ample evidence accumulated during recent years for current star formation within the 30 Doradus Nebula, which appears to have been triggered by the massive central cluster (R136) in and just beyond the curved nebular filaments surrounding it, an HST/NICMOS survey of these regions was undertaken.
