A small portion of the Rosette Nebula features in this #HubbleTopImage 🏵️⁠ ⁠ The Rosette Nebula is a star-forming region spanning 100 light-years across – this detail of the nebula measures just 4 light-years across!⁠ ⁠ Dark clouds of hydrogen gas are being eroded and shaped by radiation from the cluster of stars in the centre of the nebula. An embedded star seen at the tip of a cloud in the upper right portion of the image is launching jets of plasma that are crashing into the gas around it.⁠ ⁠ For more information check the link in bio.⁠ ⁠ 📷 NASA, ESA, STScI⁠ ⁠ #ESA #Hubble
