“NGC 281: Cluster, Clouds, and Globules” is copyrighted by Jean-Charles Cuillandre. NASA has permission to show it and we don't, so it isn't on this card.
See it on NASA's siteNGC 281 is a region of active star formation, about 7,000 light-years away in Cassiopeia. It features an open cluster of young stars, IC 1590, and a diffuse, red-glowing emission nebula. Dark lanes of gas and dust obscure parts of the nebula, and dense knots within them may still be forming new stars.
