Stars and Dust across Corona Australis Image Credit & Copyright: Alessandro Cipolat Bares

Explanation: Cosmic dust clouds cross a rich field of stars in this telescopic vista near the northern boundary of Corona Australis, the Southern Crown. Part of a sprawling molecular cloud complex this star forming region is a mere 500 light-years away. That's about one third the distance of the more famous stellar nursery known as the Orion Nebula. The 2 degree wide frame would span 15 light-years at the clouds' estimated distance. Mixed with bright nebulosities the dust clouds effectively block light from more distant background stars in the Milky Way and obscure from view embedded stars still in the process of formation. Large dark nebula Bernes 157 is on the left. To its right are a group of pretty reflection nebulae cataloged as NGC 6726, 6727, 6729, and IC 4812. Their characteristic blue color is produced as light from hot stars is reflected by the cosmic dust. The more compact NGC 6729 surrounds young variable star R Coronae Australis. Just below it, filamentary arcs and loops are identified as Herbig Haro objects associated with energetic newborn stars. In fact, at the heart of this area lies the Coronet Cluster, one of the nearest and most active star forming regions.

Blue dust clouds and young, energetic stars inhabit this telescopic vista, less than 500 light-years away toward the northern boundary of Corona Australis, the Southern Crown. The dust clouds effectively block light from more distant background stars in the Milky Way. But the striking complex of reflection nebulas cataloged as NGC 6726, 6727, and IC 4812 produce a characteristic blue color as light from the region's bright blue stars is reflected by the cosmic dust. The dust also obscures from view stars still in the process of formation. At the left, smaller yellowish nebula NGC 6729 bends around young variable star R Coronae Australis. Just below it, glowing arcs and loops shocked by outflows from embedded newborn stars are identified as Herbig-Haro objects. On the sky this field of view spans about one degree, corresponding to almost nine light-years at the estimated distance of the nearby star forming region.

Corona Australis Boyunca Yıldızlar ve Toz

Günün Astronomi Görseli 6 Ağustos 2021

Görsel & Telif: Vikas Chander

Güney Haçı’nın (Corona Australis) kuzey sınırı yakınlarından bu teleskobik manzarada, kozmik toz bulutları zengin bir yıldız bölgesinden geçiyor. 500 ışık yılından daha yakındaki toz bulutları, Samanyolu’nda daha uzaktaki arka plan yıldızlarından gelen ışığı engelliyor. Kare tepeden tabana 2 derece, ya da bulutların tahmini mesafesinde 15 ışık yılından fazla yer kaplıyor. En üst sağda NGC 6726, 6727, 6729 ve IC 4812 olarak kataloglanan bir grup yansı nebulası var. Sıcak yıldızların ışığı kozmik toz tarafından yansıtılırken karakteristik bir mavi renk üretiliyor. Toz aynı zamanda bölgede hala oluşum sürecinde olan yıldızların görüntüsünü de engelliyor. Mavi yansı nebulalarının hemen üzerinde, daha küçük NGC 6729, genç değişen yıldız R Coronae Australis’i çevreliyor. Onun sağında, enerjik yeni doğmuş yıldızlarla ilişkili, Herbig-Haro cisimleri olarak tanımlanan kırmızımsı yaylar ve düğümler bulunuyor. Muhteşem küresel yıldız kümesi NGC 6723, karede sol altta yer alıyor. NGC 6723 grubun parçası gibi görünse de kadim yıldızları aslında neredeyse 30.000 ışık yılı uzakta, Güney Haçı toz bulutlarının çok ötesindeler.
