Galaxies, Stars and Nebulae series This mosaic image of the magnificent starburst galaxy, Messier 82 (aka Cigar Galaxy) is a really sharp wide-angle view. M82 is a galaxy remarkable for its webs of shredded clouds and flame-like plumes of glowing hydrogen blasting out from its central regions where young stars are being born, 10 times faster than they are inside in our Milky Way Galaxy.

Emission Nebula NGC 2467 in Constellation Puppis Two-Tone Coffee Mug
tagged with: galaxies and stars, sculptured gas clouds, constellation puppis, ngc 2467, the stern, hot young stars, star incubator, hrbstslr enebcip, outer space astronomy images, hubble space pictures
Galaxies, Stars and Nebulae series: A colourful star-forming region is featured in this stunning image of NGC 2467 located in the southern constellation of Puppis (The Stern). Looking like a roiling cauldron of some exotic cosmic brew, huge clouds of gas and dust are sprinkled with bright blue, hot young stars. Strangely shaped dust clouds, resembling spilled liquids, are silhouetted against a colourful background of glowing gas. Like the familiar Orion Nebula, NGC 2467 is a huge cloud of gas, mostly hydrogen, that serves as an incubator for new stars. Some of these youthful stars have emerged from the dense clouds where they were born and now shine brightly, hot and blue in this picture, but many others remain hidden.
