A HaOIII narrowband image of the Eagle Nebula (catalogued as Messier 16, M16, or NGC 6611). The Eagle Nebula is part of a diffuse emission nebula, or H II region, which is catalogued as IC 4703. This region of active current star formation is about 7,000 light-years from Earth. A spire of gas that can be seen coming off the nebula in the north-eastern part is approximately 9.5 light-years or about 90 trillion kilometers long. The nebula contains several active star-forming gas and…

NGC 6188, aka The Fighting Dragons of Ara, is an emission nebula in the constellation Ara about 4,000 lightyears away. It can be seen in the Southern Hemisphere sky. Approximately 600 lightyears across, NGC 6188 is an active star-forming region where the newborn stars carve up the Fighting Dragons out of the dark cosmic dust, and cause surrounding gas to glow by blasting it with streams of charged particles known as stellar winds.
