Stunning image of the Iris Nebula (NGC 7023) in the constellation Cepheus. This reflection nebula, 1300 light-years away, displays vibrant blue hues from starlight reflecting off dust grains, with reddish photoluminescence in central filaments. The nebula's structure resembles a flower, spanning six light-years, and contains complex carbon molecules (PAHs). Credit: R. Shepherd.

A split image showcasing the "coreshine" phenomenon in the Lynds 183 nebula. The left panel (3.6 microns) reveals a bright, elongated core reflecting infrared starlight, while the right panel (8.0 microns) shows the same core appearing dark. This discovery suggests larger-than-expected dust grains in interstellar clouds, impacting our understanding of star and planet formation. The nebula is located 325 light-years away in the constellation Serpens.
