A Dust Angel Nebula

Explanation: The combined light of stars along the Milky Way are reflected by these cosmic dust clouds that soar some 300 light-years or so above the plane of our galaxy. Dubbed the Angel Nebula, the faint apparition is part of an expansive complex of dim and relatively unexplored, diffuse molecular clouds. Commonly found at high galactic latitudes, the dusty galactic cirrus can be traced over large regions toward the North and South Galactic poles. Along with the refection of starlight, studies indicate the dust clouds produce a faint reddish luminescence, as interstellar dust grains convert invisible ultraviolet radiation to visible red light. Also capturing nearby Milky Way stars and an array of distant background galaxies, the deep, wide-field 3×5 degree image spans about 10 Full Moons across planet Earth’s sky toward the constellation Ursa Major.

说明沿着银河系所分布恒星的混合星光受到了这些高悬在我们银河系盘面上空约300光年远的宇宙尘埃云的反射。这个名为天使星云的黯淡幽灵是广阔、昏暗以及未探索的复杂结构-弥散分子云的一部分。通常在高银河纬度出现的尘埃状银河卷云可能也会在北银极和南银极的大片区域出现。除了反射星光,研究表明当星际尘埃颗粒将不可见的紫外线辐射转化成可见的红光时,尘埃云就会发出黯淡的泛红冷光。这幅3×5度的深空广角影像也拍摄了邻近的银河系恒星和一些遥远的背景星系,它覆盖了行星地球天空中大熊座内约10个满月的天区。
