NASA'S PICTURE FOR THIS DAY

“Stars and Dust across Corona Australis” is copyrighted by Alessandro Cipolat Bares. NASA has permission to show it and we don't, so it isn't on this card.

COSMIC MESSAGE

Cosmic dust clouds and a rich field of stars fill this telescopic view near the northern boundary of Corona Australis, the Southern Crown. This star-forming region is part of a sprawling molecular cloud complex, only 500 light-years away. That's about one-third the distance to the more famous Orion Nebula. The dust clouds, mixed with bright nebulosities, block light from more distant stars.
