your birthday.

NASA'S PICTURE FOR THIS DAY

“The Cygnus Wall of Star Formation” is copyrighted by Michael Sherick. NASA has permission to show it and we don't, so it isn't on this card.

COSMIC MESSAGE

The Cygnus Wall is a hotbed of gas, dust, and newly formed stars within the North America Nebula. The wall is lit and eroded by bright young stars. It is partly hidden by the dark dust these stars have created. This region, in the constellation Cygnus, is actively forming new stars.
