NASA'S PICTURE FOR THIS DAY

“Inside the Flame Nebula” is copyrighted by DSS. 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

The Flame Nebula, about 1,400 light-years away in Orion, is a star-forming region glowing in optical light. X-ray data from Chandra and infrared images from Spitzer allow us to see through the dust into its heart. Inside, a cluster of recently formed stars, NGC 2024, ranges in age from 200,000 to 1.5 million years old. These young stars illuminate the surrounding gas and dust.
