“NGC 2170: Angel Nebula Still Life” is copyrighted by Juan Lozano de Haro. NASA has permission to show it and we don't, so it isn't on this card.
See it on NASA's siteNGC 2170, also known as the Angel Nebula, is a dusty reflection nebula near the center of this image. It reflects light from nearby hot stars, giving it a bluish hue. This celestial still life also includes other bluish reflection nebulae, a red emission region, and many dark absorption nebulae. The clouds of gas, dust, and hot stars create a complex and colorful scene in the constellation Monoceros.
