NASA'S PICTURE FOR THIS DAY

“A Filament in Monoceros” is copyrighted by Giorgio Ferrari. NASA has permission to show it and we don't, so it isn't on this card.

COSMIC MESSAGE

This dusty expanse in Monoceros, the Unicorn, is home to bluish reflection nebulae. The image spans over a degree of sky, showing IC 447 on the left and IC 446 on the lower right. A long, dark filament of dust connects them within the Monoceros R1 cloud complex, about 2,500 light-years away. Young, hot blue stars embedded in IC 447 illuminate the cosmic dust clouds.
