NASA'S PICTURE FOR THIS DAY

“The Deep Lagoon” is copyrighted by Adam Block. NASA has permission to show it and we don't, so it isn't on this card.

COSMIC MESSAGE

The Lagoon Nebula, also known as M8, is a turbulent region of glowing interstellar gas and dark dust clouds. This bright star-forming region is about 5,000 light-years away. It is a popular target for telescopes in the constellation Sagittarius, towards the center of our Milky Way Galaxy. The red emission comes from ionized hydrogen atoms.
