The Tadpole Nebula

from $20.00
sale

The Tadpole Nebula is a vibrant region of ionized hydrogen gas, glowing due to the energetic radiation from the young, hot stars in the central open cluster NGC 1893. The intense stellar winds from these stars have sculpted the nebula, creating the unique tadpole-shaped structures. These "tadpoles" are composed of denser, cooler gas and dust, and are likely sites of new star formation.
