“The Mysterious Cone Nebula” is copyrighted by Robert Gendler. NASA has permission to show it and we don't, so it isn't on this card.
See it on NASA's siteThis cosmic pillar of cold gas and dust, called the Cone Nebula, stands 2,700 light-years away in Monoceros. Its conical shape is sculpted by the fierce winds and radiation from nearby hot, young stars. The bright star S Monocerotis, visible to the right, illuminates the blue reflection nebulae around it. This region is a stellar nursery, where new stars are still being born.
