NGC 2264 nebulae
NGC 2264 nebulae. Optical image of the NGC 2264 nebulae in the constellation Monoceros. North is at top. NGC 2264 is the hot young star cluster (bright patch at centre left). It is ionising the hydrogen gas in the large gas and dust cloud surrounding it, causing it to glow red. The brightest star in this cluster (above and left of the main glow) is the blue supergiant stars or 15 Monocerotis. The lower left portion of this region contains the Cone Nebula, a triangular dark cloud of star formation. This region is 2600 light years distant. The blue glow (centre right) is the reflection nebula IC 2169

EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning print captures the mesmerizing beauty of the NGC 2264 nebulae in the constellation Monoceros. The image showcases a vibrant display of celestial wonders, with North positioned at the top. At the heart of this cosmic masterpiece lies NGC 2264, a cluster of hot young stars emitting an intense glow that ionizes the surrounding hydrogen gas and dust cloud, resulting in a captivating red hue. Amidst this stellar congregation, one star shines brightest - 15 Monocerotis, a magnificent blue supergiant illuminating its surroundings from above and left of the central glow. Adding to the enchantment is the Cone Nebula nestled in the lower left portion of this region; it appears as a striking triangular dark cloud where new stars are being born. The entire scene unfolds approximately 2600 light years away from us, evoking awe and wonder at our vast universe's grandeur. A notable feature is IC 2169, represented by a brilliant blue reflection nebula situated towards the center-right section of this ethereal tableau. This photograph not only celebrates scientific exploration but also serves as a visual testament to creation and evolution within our cosmos. It invites contemplation on star formation, stellar birth processes, astrophysics, cosmology, and more. With its intricate interplay between light and shadow amidst swirling clouds of gas and dust against an expansive backdrop filled with countless stars dotting dark space – this image truly encapsulates both mystery and marvels awaiting discovery beyond
