Episode Details

In today's image, we see an image of the Cone Nebula. This is a region of star formation where this cone is a remaining dense area where stars continue to form. The less dense areas around this have already been eroded away by the energy of stars that formed previously.

My podcasts are available in video form through this YouTube Channel.
