NASA'S PICTURE FOR THIS DAY

“Dusty Nebulae in Taurus” is copyrighted by Bob Franke. NASA has permission to show it and we don't, so it isn't on this card.

COSMIC MESSAGE

This region of dusty nebulae lies along the edge of the Taurus molecular cloud, only 450 light-years away. New stars are forming here, including RY Tauri, a very young star embedded in its natal cloud of gas and dust. RY Tauri is a pre-main sequence star, still relatively cool and in the late phases of gravitational collapse. It is also cataloged as reflection nebula vdB 27.
