NASA'S PICTURE FOR THIS DAY

“Pillars and Jets in the Pelican Nebula” is copyrighted by Larry Van Vleet (LVVASTRO). NASA has permission to show it and we don't, so it isn't on this card.

COSMIC MESSAGE

The Pelican Nebula, shaped like a bird towards the constellation Cygnus, is a region of newly formed stars and dark dust. These smoke-sized dust grains formed in the cool atmospheres of young stars and were dispersed by stellar winds and explosions. Impressive Herbig-Haro jets are seen emitted by a star on the right, which is helping to destroy the light-year-long dust pillar that contains it.
