“The Flaming Star Nebula” is copyrighted by Thomas Röell. NASA has permission to show it and we don't, so it isn't on this card.
See it on NASA's siteThe Flaming Star Nebula, IC 405, surrounds the bright star AE Aurigae. Despite its name and fiery appearance, there is no actual fire here. The nebula glows because the intense energy from AE Aurigae excites the surrounding hydrogen gas, causing it to emit light.
