See it on NASA's siteCometary globule CG4 stretches through this deep southern sky. About 1,300 light-years away in Puppis, its head is 1.5 light-years across and its tail about 8 light-years long. This dusty cloud contains enough material to form several Sun-like stars, and star formation is ongoing within it.
