Shell Game in NGC 300

COSMIC MESSAGE

Spiral galaxy NGC 300, a beautiful face-on galaxy, is seen here through a narrow filter that captures only the red light of hydrogen atoms. This light is emitted when hydrogen is ionized by energetic starlight. The image is dominated by regions of massive, young stars and shell-shaped clouds of hydrogen gas.
