Omega Nebula
Omega Nebula. Optical image of the Omega Nebula, also known as Messier 17 and NGC 6618. This is an emission nebula, where hot, young stars in the centre of the nebula ionise surrounding clouds of hydrogen gas and make them glow. Such nebulae, known as HII regions, are known to be associated with star formation. Part of the nebula is obscured by a dark dust lane. The Omega Nebula lies in the constellation Sagittarius about 6000 light years from Earth

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the mesmerizing Omega Nebula, also known as Messier 17 and NGC 6618. Located in the constellation Sagittarius, approximately 6000 light years away from Earth, this optical image reveals a stunning emission nebula. At its core, hot and youthful stars emit intense radiation that ionizes the surrounding hydrogen gas clouds, causing them to radiate with vibrant hues. The Omega Nebula is an extraordinary example of an HII region - a nebula associated with star formation. Its ethereal beauty is enhanced by the presence of a dark dust lane that partially obscures certain parts of this celestial wonderland. This photograph offers us a glimpse into the intricate processes involved in stellar evolution and birth. As we marvel at this cosmic masterpiece captured by Science Photo Library, it reminds us of our ever-expanding knowledge about the universe's vastness and complexity.
