🌌 發現玫瑰星雲(Rosette Nebula)!在這幅圖片中,雙眼可能會被紅色的花朵狀星雲吸引,但真正的玫瑰星雲其實位於右下方,呈現藍白色,並由金色絲線與其他星雲相連。這幅寬廣的圖像中,深紅色的曝光使得星雲的背景看起來像是還有其他花朵。
玫瑰星雲的編號是 NGC 2237,其中心由明亮的藍色恆星組成的星團 NGC 2244 所主導,這些恆星的風和強烈光芒正在清空星雲的中心。玫瑰星雲距離我們約 5,000 光年,直徑則是滿月的三倍。你可以在獨角獸座(Monoceros)方向找到這些迷人的星雲。

Can you find the Rosette Nebula? The red flowery-looking nebula just above the image center may seem a good choice, but that’s not it. The famous Rosette Nebula is really located on the lower right, here colored blue and white, and connected to the other nebulas by gold-colored filaments. Because the featured image of Rosette’s field is so wide, and because of its deep red exposure, it seems to contain other flowers. Designated NGC 2237, the center of the Rosette Nebula is populated by the bright blue stars of open cluster NGC 2244, whose winds and energetic light are evacuating the nebula’s center. The Rosette Nebula is about 5,000 light years distant and, just by itself, spans about three times the diameter of a full moon. This flowery field can be found toward the constellation of the Unicorn (Monoceros). Explore Your Universe: Random APOD Generator
