COSMIC MESSAGE
The Cat's Paw Nebula, NGC 6334, is a vast emission nebula glowing red from ionized hydrogen atoms. Located 5,500 light-years away in Scorpius, it shares the frame with the equally striking NGC 6357 below it. This region is a stellar nursery, where hot, young stars illuminate and sculpt the surrounding gas and dust. The nebula's distinctive shape gives it its feline name.
