Nebula Sh 2-106, HST image
Nebula Sh 2-106, Hubble Space Telescope (HST) image. Combined optical and infrared image of the compact star-forming region and emission nebula Sharpless 2-106 (Sh 2-106). A newly-formed star (S106 IR, centre) is heating the surrounding nebula, causing hydrogen to glow (blue). The polar jets from this star create the observed bipolar symmetry. This region is 3300 light years from Earth, in the constellation of Cygnus. Image data obtained with the HSTs Wide Field Camera 3 (WFC3) instrument. Image published in 2011

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the mesmerizing beauty of Nebula Sh 2-106, as captured by the Hubble Space Telescope (HST). The image combines optical and infrared data to unveil a compact star-forming region and emission nebula known as Sharpless 2-106 (Sh 2-106). At the heart of this celestial spectacle lies a newly-formed star named S106 IR, emanating intense heat that causes hydrogen in the surrounding nebula to glow with an enchanting blue hue. The striking feature of this cosmic masterpiece is its observed bipolar symmetry, which is created by polar jets emitted from S106 IR. These jets add a sense of dynamism and balance to the overall composition. Located approximately 3300 light years away from Earth in the constellation of Cygnus, this ethereal scene unveils nature's artistic prowess on a grand scale. Captured using HST's Wide Field Camera 3 (WFC3) instrument, this image was published in 2011. It serves as a testament to humanity's insatiable curiosity about our universe and provides valuable insights into astrophysics and stellar evolution. As we gaze upon this celestial snow angel suspended amidst interstellar gas and dust clouds, we are reminded once again of the vastness and wonder that exists beyond our own planet.
