“CG4: A Ruptured Cometary Globule” is copyrighted by T. A. Rector. NASA has permission to show it and we don't, so it isn't on this card.
See it on NASA's siteThis image shows CG4, a ruptured cometary globule, a gas cloud with a dusty head and an elongated tail. Unlike comets, these globules are often star-forming regions. The rupture in CG4 suggests powerful forces at play, possibly from nearby stellar radiation, shaping this cosmic nursery.
