NASA’s Astronomy Picture of the Day
2023 June 19 - The Busy Center of the Lagoon Nebula
In today's image, we see the central portions of the Lagoon Nebula which is a star forming region in the constellation of Sagittarius. We see a number of dark dusty areas, inclined a couple of funnel clouds which are formed by great temperature differences between parts of the nebula.
