This Week in Astronomy

Tune in every week for the best in astronomy from Astronomy Editor Dave Eicher — PRESENTED BY CELESTRON.

A photograph of the Rho Ophiuchi cloud complex. The image is dominated by swirling nebulae in various colors — yellows, blues, and hints of red and pink. At lower left lies the star Antares, enveloped by a golden yellow cloud. In the upper right is Rho Ophiuchi, surrounded by a blue reflection nebula. The background is filled with countless stars of varying brightness. Dark dust lanes create striking contrasts throughout the image, particularly in the center. The overall effect is a rich, colorful cosmic tapestry of gas, dust, and stars.

Two glowing, red-magenta clouds of hydrogen gas — emission nebulae — lie in the frame. On the left lies the North America Nebulae (NGC 7000), appearing in the shape of the North American continent. On the right is the Pelican Nebula (IC 5070), appearing like the head of a pelican seen in profile.
