Here's a look into the star-forming region S106 assembled from image data captured by in infrared wavelengths on Feb. 13, 2011 (PI Keith Noll). A newborn star is blasting away a space within the cloud from which it formed, 3,300 light-years away.

One more Herbig-Haro object: HH 46/47, a ~3-parsec-long jet complex with multiple bow shocks about 1500 light-years away. This is a color-composite made from Hubble WFC3 observations in infrared wavelengths in March 2019 (PI Brunella Nisini)

Here's a view of the famous Horsehead Nebula (Barnard 33) located 1,375 light-years away under the first star in Orion's belt. This is a color-composite made from images acquired with Hubble in wide-band infrared in Oct.-Nov. 2012. (PI Z. Levay). In optical light it appears dark.

Here's a view of NGC 6946, aka the Fireworks Galaxy🎇, an intermediate spiral galaxy 25 million light-years away in the constellations Cepheus & Cygnus. This is a mosaic of 7 observation sets from Jan. 25-26 2019, each containing 2 images in optical light and a synthesized green.

Happy galaxaturday! Here's a new comp, this one showing part of the spiral galaxy NGC 3627, aka Messier 66, located 31 million light-years away (lya) in Leo. It's just slightly smaller across than the Milky Way. Data here is from Hubble's WFC3 on Nov. 11, 2019.

Today's galaxy composite shows the central region of NGC 1365, a barred spiral galaxy 56 million light-years away in the constellation Fornax. The heart of this galaxy is home to a supermassive black hole 2 million times more massive than the Sun.

Today's galaxy composite is NGC 4654, an intermediate spiral galaxy located 55 million light-years away in the constellation Virgo. The data comprising this view were acquired with the WFC3 instrument on in December 2019.
