COSMIC MESSAGE
NGC 281 is a cosmic cloud with sculpted columns and dense dust globules. These structures are being eroded by intense winds and radiation from hot, young stars. These stars belong to the open cluster IC 1590, which formed within the nebula. If these dusty structures survive, they could form new stars.
