“The Trifid Nebula is Stars and Dust” is copyrighted by Robert Gendler. NASA has permission to show it and we don't, so it isn't on this card.
See it on NASA's siteThe Trifid Nebula, also known as M20, is a region where stars are actively forming. The red-glowing gas is hydrogen, energized by high-energy starlight. Dark dust filaments, formed in the atmospheres of cool giant stars and supernova debris, lace through the nebula. It is visible with good binoculars toward the constellation of Sagittarius.
