Nebula NGC 3372 in the Carene - NGC 3372 Carina nebula - The Carene Nebula...

IMAGE number
PIX4619112
Image title
Nebula NGC 3372 in the Carene - NGC 3372 Carina nebula - The Carene Nebula (NGC 3372) is a very large region of star formation visible in the southern hemisphere. Image obtained through 3 different filters that highlight oxygen (blue), hydrogen (green), and sulfur (red). The bright star in the center of the image is Eta Carinae, a super massive star. The Carina Nebula (also known as the Great Nebula in Carina, the Eta Carinae Nebula, or NGC 3372) is a large bright nebula that surrounds several open clusters of stars. Eta Carinae and HD 93129A, two of the most massive and luminous stars in our Milky Way galaxy, are among them. The nebula lies at an estimated distance between 6,500 and 10,000 light years from Earth. It is located in the constellation of Carina. The nebula contains multiple O - type stars. This nebula is one of the largest H II regions in the Milky Way. It has a visual magnitude of 1.0. The nebula is one of the largest diffuse nebulae in our skies. Although it is some four times as large and even brighter than the famous Orion Nebula, the Carina Nebula is much less well known, due to its location far in the Southern Hemisphere. It was discovered by Nicolas Louis de Lacaille in 1751 - 52 from the Cape of Good Hope. This is an amazingly bright nebula. This image is in the classic “” Hubble palette”” where SII is assigned to red, H - alpha to green, and OIII to blue. RGB frames were taken for star colors
