Starry, dark sky with a doughnut-shaped nebulosity in the middle. It looks orange and yellowish outside, and bluish closer to the center. At the very center it is dark, with a cluster of bright stars
Steven Bellavia in Smithfield, Virginia, shared this image with us and wrote: "The #RosetteNebula, in #Monoceros, is one of my favorite objects to observe and image. The mass of the #nebula is estimated to be around 10,000 solar masses." Thank you, Steven!

Vast clouds of red gas that look like a pyramid with bluish-white dots of stars.
We'd be remiss to have the holiday season pass by without showcasing the lovely #ChristmasTree cluster, in the constellation #Monoceros. Look at the sparkling, bluish-white stars ... They look like baubles! 🌌🎄🔭

A vibrant wide-field astrophotograph of the Rosette Nebula (NGC 2237), appearing like a cosmic flower. The nebula glows with deep reds and pinks, surrounded by filaments of dust and gas. In its center lies a star cluster, NGC 2244, whose young blue-white stars illuminate the nebula. The entire structure is framed by the dark backdrop of space, with scattered stars dotting the field.

A breathtaking close-up of the Cone Nebula's blunted head, captured by the Hubble Space Telescope. The image showcases vibrant red and blue hues of glowing hydrogen gas and dark dust pillars sculpted by stellar winds from the massive star NGC 2264 IRS (off-image). This region, about 2.5 light-years across, is a stellar nursery within the larger NGC 2264 star-forming region in Monoceros.

A deep, wide-field image of the Rosette Nebula region. The actual Rosette Nebula appears in the lower right, glowing in soft blue and white hues, with its central cavity carved out by bright blue stars from cluster NGC 2244. Delicate golden filaments stretch across the field, connecting other reddish nebulae in the frame. A large red nebula sits near the center but is not the Rosette. The background is filled with countless stars across the dark field of Monoceros.
