COSMIC MESSAGE

The Lion Nebula, officially Sh2-132, is a powerful nebula in the constellation Cepheus, powered by two massive stars. These stars, each over 20 times the mass of our Sun, have formed shells of ionized gas that glow and are dense enough to form new stars. This energetic region has an angular size slightly larger than the full moon.
