colorfully describes the Cone Nebula as"resembling a nightmarish beast rearing its head from a crimson sea."
In the image, captured with the VLT's Focal Reducer/low dispersion Spectrograph 2 , hydrogen gas can be seen in blue and sulfur gas in red. Rather than appearing in their usual blue, young stars in the nebula look almost like golden sparkles. The Cone Nebula is a striking example of the pillar-like clouds of cold molecular gas and dust that serve as the raw materials for star birth.
The young stars of NGC 2264 have been eroding material in this region over millions of years, forming the dense and dark Cone Nebula that points away from NGC 2264.
Like Godzilla right?
