The Cone #Nebula from #Hubble
The Cone Nebula, a star-forming pillar 2,500 light-years away in Monoceros, spans 7 light-years. Hubble's detailed image shows its tip over 2.5 light-years wide. The nebula's shape is sculpted by winds from the massive star NGC 2264 IRS, with its glow from hydrogen gas.
