NGC 281 The Pacman Nebula

from $13.00

High overhead in Cassiopeia sits a cosmic arcade ghost: NGC 281, the Pacman Nebula, a vast cloud of glowing hydrogen 9,200 light-years away. Its nickname comes from the dark dust lane that carves a "mouth" into the nebula — but the real story is star birth: embedded in the gas are dense knots called Bok globules, each collapsing under its own gravity to ignite a new star.
