In
this beautiful celestial
still life composed with a cosmic brush, dusty nebula NGC 2170 shines at
the upper left. Reflecting the light of nearby hot stars, NGC 2170 is joined
by other bluish reflection
nebulae, a compact red emission
region, and streamers of obscuring dust against a backdrop of stars. Like the common
household items still life
painters often choose for their subjects, the clouds of gas, dust, and hot
stars pictured here are also commonly found in this setting - a massive, star-forming molecular cloud
in the constellation Monoceros the Unicorn.
The giant molecular
cloud, Mon R2, is impressively close, estimated
to be only 2,400 light-years or so away. At that distance, this canvas would be
about 15 light-years across.
