“The Colorful Clouds of Rho Ophiuchi” is copyrighted by Amir H. Abolfath. NASA has permission to show it and we don't, so it isn't on this card.
See it on NASA's siteThe Rho Ophiuchi cloud complex is a star-forming region in the constellation Ophiuchus. Blue areas in the nebula shine by reflected starlight, similar to why Earth's sky is blue. Red and yellow regions glow due to emission from atomic and molecular gas. This nebula is one of the closest star-forming regions to Earth, about 460 light-years away.
