ESOshop: Mounted image 136: The Omega Nebula and its hot young stars
ESO’s 3.58-metre New Technology Telescope at the La Silla Observatory in Chile took the data for this composite image of the Omega Nebula (Messier 17, or NGC 6618). Located about 5500 light-years from Earth and extending over 15 light-years, the Omega Nebula is in the constellation of Sagittarius. The gas and dust of the nebula are lit from within by young, hot stars embedded in the cloud.
