Ghost-Like Nebula Says 'Boo!'Credit: NASA, ESA, Hubble, R. Sahai (JPL) [Full Story]The ghost-like nebula, IRAS 05437+2502, includes a small star-forming region filled with dark dust that was first noted in images taken by the IRAS satellite in infrared light in 1983. This recently released image from the Hubble Space Telescope shows many new details, but has not uncovered a clear cause of the bright sharp arc.
Space Tarantula! Credit: ESO/M.-R. Cioni/VISTA Magellanic Cloud surveyThis view shows part of the very active star-forming region around the Tarantula Nebula in the Large Magellanic Cloud, a small neighbor of the Milky Way. At the exact center lies the brilliant but isolated star VFTS 682 and to its lower right the very rich star cluster R 136.
