NGC 1999: Reflection Nebula in Orion

NASA APOD
COSMIC MESSAGE

NGC 1999 is a reflection nebula in Orion, shining by reflecting light from a nearby star. Unlike emission nebulae, which glow red from excited gas, reflection nebulae have a bluish cast because their dust grains scatter blue light more efficiently. This Hubble Space Telescope image shows a dramatic contrast between bright and dark dusty regions.
