Jets from young stars are used as an example to review how laboratory modeling enables advancement in understanding the main physical processes responsible for the formation and stability of these amazing objects. The discussion focuses on the options for modeling jet emissions in a laboratory experiment at the PF-3 facility at the National Research Center Kurchatov Institute. Many properties of the flows obtained using this experimental setup are consistent with the main features of jets from young stars.
