“The Tarantula Zone” is copyrighted by Marco Lorenzi. NASA has permission to show it and we don't, so it isn't on this card.
See it on NASA's siteThe Tarantula Nebula is a giant star-forming region, over a thousand light-years in diameter, located in the Large Magellanic Cloud. This deep, colorful telescopic view spans nearly two degrees of the sky. Within it, intense radiation and stellar winds sculpt the gas and dust, driving new star formation.
