Cosmic dust

NGC 6188, aka The Fighting Dragons of Ara, is an emission nebula in the constellation Ara about 4,000 lightyears away. It can be seen in the Southern Hemisphere sky. Approximately 600 lightyears across, NGC 6188 is an active star-forming region where the newborn stars carve up the Fighting Dragons out of the dark cosmic dust, and cause surrounding gas to glow by blasting it with streams of charged particles known as stellar winds.

Prepare to feel tiiiiny.
