Rose Nebula
 Rose Nebula... 3--16
The Rose Nebula is a giant space cloud of dust, oxygen, and hydrogen binary gas (H II region) in the Unicorn constellation (constellation) of the Milky Way. The nebula is shaped like a rose, and is about 5,200 light-years away from us. The drop is approximately 130 light-years across.

The Rose Nebula is not the only cosmic cloud of gas and dust that resembles the image of a rose, but it is the most, and the rose petals form a nursery for stars. In the heart of the Rose Nebula there is an open star cluster called NGC 2244 (in English: NGC 2244) of bright stars that illuminate the nebula. The cluster can be seen with a small telescope, but the nebula is difficult to see.
