The existence of T Tauri and flare stars located below the main sequence in some young clusters pose a difficult problem of interpretation for gravitational contraction within conventional stellar theory. We introduce the hypotheses that when solar type protostars first achieve hydrostatic equilibrium they are surrounded by close spherical cloud of small mass (˜ 10-2 to 10-3 Msun) and that this cloud can evolve to form planetesimals which can grow further. These ideas allow the prediction that in the vicinity of newly formed Herbig-Haro objects, one or more stars heavily obscured must exist which are in the process of clearing up. This star would be very infrared but in the future it would become visible and eventually become a main sequence object.
