Abstract Stellar multiple systems play a pivotal role in cluster dynamics and stellar evolution, producing intense astronomical phenomena like X-ray binaries, gamma-ray bursts, type Ia supernova and stellar mergers, which are prime sources of gravitational waves. However, their origin remains poorly understood. Here we report the discovery of a septuple protostellar system embedded in a Keplerian disk within the high-mass star-forming region NGC 6334IN, with close separations of 181–461 au.
