NASA'S PICTURE FOR THIS DAY

“The Merope Reflection Nebula” is copyrighted by Jean-Charles Cuillandre. NASA has permission to show it and we don't, so it isn't on this card.

COSMIC MESSAGE

The Merope Reflection Nebula, NGC 1435, surrounds Merope, one of the brightest stars in the Pleiades. It glows blue because small carbon grains in the nebula scatter blue light more efficiently than red light. The nebula's brightness depends on the density of these grains and the star's luminosity.
