“NGC 7023: The Iris Nebula” is copyrighted by Daniel López. NASA has permission to show it and we don't, so it isn't on this card.
See it on NASA's siteThe Iris Nebula, cataloged as NGC 7023, blossoms 1,300 light-years away in the constellation Cepheus. These delicate clouds of interstellar dust and gas surround a hot, young star at the nebula's core. This detailed image highlights the nebula's impressive range of colors and symmetries. It is a beautiful example of how cosmic dust can evoke the imagery of flowers.
