NASA'S PICTURE FOR THIS DAY

“Orion's Horsehead Nebula” is copyrighted by Adam Block. NASA has permission to show it and we don't, so it isn't on this card.

COSMIC MESSAGE

The Horsehead Nebula, a dark cloud of dust, stands out against a glowing background of hydrogen gas. This region is part of a larger star-forming complex in the constellation Orion. The bright star to the left is Alnitak, one of the stars in Orion's belt. This cosmic cloud has assumed a recognizable shape, much like clouds in Earth's atmosphere.
