COSMIC MESSAGE

The Lagoon Nebula's center is a region of active star formation. The image shows two funnel-shaped clouds, each half a light-year long, sculpted by stellar winds and intense light. Herschel 36, a tremendously bright star, illuminates the area, while dust walls hide other young stars.
