“The NGC 3576 Nebula” is copyrighted by Ken Crawford. NASA has permission to show it and we don't, so it isn't on this card.
See it on NASA's siteNGC 3576 is an intriguing nebula drifting through the Sagittarius arm of the Milky Way. Powerful winds from young, massive stars embedded within it sculpt the looping filaments of gas. This false-color image highlights the glow from hydrogen, sulfur, and oxygen, energized by intense ultraviolet radiation. The nebula's complex shapes are thought to be shaped by episodes of star formation.
