NASA'S PICTURE FOR THIS DAY

“NGC 7822 in Cepheus” is copyrighted by Steve Cannistra. NASA has permission to show it and we don't, so it isn't on this card.

COSMIC MESSAGE

Hot, young stars and cosmic pillars of gas and dust fill NGC 7822, a glowing star-forming region about 3,000 light-years away in Cepheus. Bright edges and dark shapes stand out in this colorful skyscape. The image uses narrowband filters, mapping emission from atomic oxygen, hydrogen, and sulfur into blue, green, and red hues.
