COSMIC MESSAGE

The Carina Nebula contains dark molecular clouds, which are knots of gas and dust so thick they become opaque. These clouds are typically less dense than Earth's atmosphere. This image shows a detailed part of the Carina Nebula, where these dark forms are prominent. The entire nebula spans over 300 light-years and is about 7,500 light-years away.
