Description
English: The glowing jumble of gas clouds visible in new image make up a huge stellar nursery nicknamed the Prawn Nebula. Taken using the VLT Survey Telescope at ESO’s Paranal Observatory in Chile, this may well be the sharpest picture ever taken of this object. It shows clumps of hot new-born stars nestled in among the clouds that make up the nebula. This image also contains information from images of this object taken by Martin Pugh.
Русский: Скопление светящихся газовых облаков на этом новом снимке – гигантские звездные «ясли», называемые туманностью Креветка. Этот кадр, полученный с обзорным телескопом VLT Survey Telescope в обсерватории ESO Паранал в Чили, является, возможно, самым четким и детальным изображением этого замечательного объекта. Видны скопления горячих новорожденных звезд, гнездящихся среди образующих туманность облаков газа. На этом кадре также отражена информация, полученная при наблюдениях данного объекта Мартином Пухом.
Polski: Świecące zbiorowisko obłoków gazu, widoczne na zamieszczonym zdjęciu, tworzy olbrzymią gwiezdną wylęgarnię o nazwie Mgławica Krewetka. Fotografia, którą uzyskano za pomocą teleskopu VST w Obserwatorium ESO Paranal w Chile, może być najlepszym wykonanym zdjęciem tego obiektu. Pokazuje gromadki gorących, nowo narodzonych gwiazd położonych wśród obłoków tworzących mgławicę.
