NASA recently shared beautiful pictures of a cosmic reef located 163,000 light-years from Earth in the constellation Dorado. These nebulae are part of a vast star-forming region, the Large Magellanic Cloud, a satellite galaxy of the Milky Way full of massive stars.⁣ The images were captured by NASA's Hubble Telescope. The stars near the centre of the image are around 10 to 20 times the size of the Sun, and their intense radiation heats surrounding dense gases like oxygen seen in light blue to 20,000°F (11,000°C). Hydrogen and nitrogen are relatively cooler in temperature and are seen in red. The nebula in the lower left was created from a star 200,000 times brighter than the Sun, which ejected gas in a series of eruptive events.⁣ 'Merging Galaxies': NASA's Hubble Telescope Shares Captivating Image of Two Merging Galaxies Located 350 Million Light Years From Earth (See Pic).
