NASA'S PICTURE FOR THIS DAY

“The Ghosts of Cassiopeia” is copyrighted by Cassiopeia. NASA has permission to show it and we don't, so it isn't on this card.

See it on NASA's site
COSMIC MESSAGE

These bright, flowing shapes, IC 59 and IC 63, look like cosmic ghosts in the constellation Cassiopeia. About 600 light-years away, these clouds are slowly being eroded by energetic radiation from the hot, luminous star Gamma Cas. Gamma Cas is only 3 to 4 light-years from the nebulae, its intense light pushing away the dust and gas, causing them to gradually disappear.
