"A telescope in space has sent back a cosmic Valentine picture - a stellar nursery resembling a pink rosebud. The Spitzer Space Telescope, launched last year, looked at a group of newborn stars embedded in a cloud of gas and dust called a reflection nebula. Located some 3,330 light-years away in the constellation Cepheus and spanning 10 light-years across, the rosebud-shaped nebula is home to about 130 young stars. Previous images of the gas cloud, known as NGC 7129, taken in optical light show a dusting of hot young stars against the luminescent cloud." Credit: NASA

very striking resemblance to the Orion Nebula, only orientated on it's side, very beautiful picture! I love astronomy and soon hope to get a better telescope, one worthy of investing time into astrophotography. Thank you for finding and sharing this with us :)

But words are things, and a small drop of ink, falling, like dew, upon a thought produces that which makes thousands, perhaps millions think and smile.
Art is everywhere, except it has to pass through a creative mind.
Great image. I know how hard it is to track down the good ones out there.

Thank you.

The rose wasn't edited, although I touched up the edges of the pic a bit.
