In this view from Hubble?s Advanced Camera for Surveys[ACS], we can see an outstanding cosmic phenomena.
In the bottom of the image, the bright cloud is a reflection nebula known as [B77] 63, a cloud of interstellar gas that is reflecting light from the stars embedded within it. These stars are lighting up the surrounding gas and sculpting it into the wispy shape seen in this image.
However, the most interesting part of this image is the dark stream of smoke piling outwards from [B77] 63 and its stars. Its a dark nebula called Dobashi 4173. Dark nebulae are incredibly dense clouds of pitch-dark material that obscure the patches of sky behind them, seemingly creating great rips and eerily empty chunks of sky.

- Fireworks In Helix Nebula
Image taken by Subaru Telescope shows comet -shaped knots lighting up the Helix nebula. A nebula is cloud of gas and dust in space. Some nebulas are regions where new stars are being formed, while others are the remains of dead or dying stars. Nebulas...
- The Tarantula Nebula.
The Tarantula Nebula, also known as 30 Doradus is a giant star-forming region, where energy from hot and young stars creates dramatic voids and filaments surrounding by gas. It is located in the Large Magellanic Cloud [LMC] galaxy at a...
- The Orion Nebula.
The Orion Nebula, also known as M42 or NGC 1976 is a diffuse nebula situated in the Milky Way, being south of Orion's Belt in the constellation of Orion. It is one of the brightest nebula and is visible to the naked eye in the night sky. ...
- The Horsehead Nebula
One of the most recognizable nebula, Orion's Horsehead Nebula is also one of the most spectacular. Known as a 'dark nebula' due to its intense density, a silhouette resembling a horse's head is able to be seen arising out of a swirling...
