Reflection nebula (NGC 2170) C017 / 3737
Reflection nebula (NGC 2170), optical image. This nebula lies around 2, 400 light years from Earth in the constellation Monoceros. Reflection nebulae are huge clouds of gas and dust which are lit up by reflecting the light of nearby stars. They typically appear blue as blue light is scattered more than red. The reddish regions are due to areas of emission nebulosity, where the radiation of hot young stars ionises hydrogen gas and causes it to glow. Imaged by the Moorook Observatory, Australia

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the mesmerizing beauty of the Reflection Nebula (NGC 2170) in all its celestial glory. Located approximately 2,400 light years away from Earth in the constellation Monoceros, this nebula is a vast expanse of gas and dust that comes to life by reflecting the radiant light emitted by nearby stars. The ethereal blue hue dominates this image as it represents the scattering of blue light, while contrasting reddish regions signify areas of emission nebulosity. These crimson pockets are formed when hydrogen gas is ionized by the intense radiation emitted by young hot stars, causing it to emit a luminous glow. Imaged with remarkable precision by the Moorook Observatory in Australia, this optical masterpiece offers us a glimpse into a stellar nursery where new stars are born. The intricate interplay between clouds of dust and gaseous formations creates an otherworldly spectacle that ignites our imagination and fuels our curiosity about astrophysics and stellar formation. Robert Gendler's expertise behind capturing such astronomical wonders shines through in this photograph from Science Photo Library. As we marvel at NGC 2170's breathtaking display against a starry backdrop, we are reminded once again of the boundless wonders that exist beyond our earthly realm.
