The Most Detailed Infrared Map Of Our Galaxy Has Been Released, Featuring Over 1.5 Billion ObjectsHere we see, from left to right and top to bottom: NGC 3576, NGC 6357, Messier 17, NGC 6188, Messier 22 and NGC 3603. All of them are clouds of gas and dust where stars are forming, except Messier 22, which is a very dense group of old stars. The other are wispy clouds of gas with bright stars embedded between them.

1.5-Billion-Pixel Image Of The Running Chicken Nebula Is AstoundingThe Running Chicken Nebula comprises several clouds, all of which we can see in this vast image from the VLT Survey Telescope (VST), hosted at ESO’s Paranal site. This 1.5-billion pixel image spans an area in the sky of about 25 full Moons. The clouds shown in wispy pink plumes are full of gas and dust, illuminated by the young and hot stars within them.

Mosaic Of 1 Million Images Creates Incredible Atlas Of Birthplace Of StarsThis image shows the region Lupus 2. New stars are born in the colourful clouds of gas and dust seen here. The infrared observations underlying this image reveal new details in the star-forming regions that are usually obscured by the clouds of dust.
