„The Lagoon Nebula“

from the gallery of summit-photos
Description:

The lagoon nebula is a well-known gas nebula. Visible only with a telescope, its real beauty becomes obvious on long-exposed photographs. It was discovered by Giovanni Hodierna in the 17th century and subsequently included in his catalogue by Charles Messier. The nebula is a giant area of star forming. New stars are formed from the gas that is illuminated by these newly born stars.
