✨The Beauty of Jupiter ✨
Star cluster NGC 346 with mosaic imagery from the Chandra X-Ray Observatory, Hubble Space Telescope, Spitzer Space Telescope, JWST, XMM-Newton X-Ray Observatory, and the New Technology Telescope.
NGC 1999 is a reflection nebula located in the constellation Orion.
It is notable for its striking appearance, which includes a dark patch that resembles a hole in the surrounding gas and dust.
This dark region is often referred to as the "hole" in NGC 1999, and it is thought to be a result of the absorption of light by the dust in the nebula.
