The Circinus giant molecular cloud is a little explored region that deserves closer study owing to the many signs of vigorous low-mass star formation in the form of Hα emission stars, Herbig-Haro objects, molecular outflows, and embedded sources. The western part of the cloud complex has a filamentary structure with numerous cavities, indicating the effect of powerful molecular outflows. It is likely that the current strong star formation activity was triggered by a supernova explosion. Our present limited knowledge about this region is summarized, and several particularly interesting sources are discussed.
