Description

Image data courtesy of the Telescope Live remote imaging platform.
SHO Hubble palette image.
This image was originally intended to be a wider mosaic of the nebula but the new data wasn't deep enough to merge successfully so I cropped out the weaker data and concentrated on the wonderful structures and globules in the core of the nebula.
