Description

Rosette nebula (NGC 2237)The Rosette nebula is a winter sky object in the constellation of Monoceros.It is made up of a giant gas cloud surrounding a centra star cluster NGC 2244. The wind from the forming stars is pushing away the gas cloud – thus the ring structure of the object.I imaged this back in 2021. Reprocessed it this spring.
