Cat's Paw Nebula
NEBULA · a giant's footprint
A star forming cloud in Scorpius whose round, glowing bubbles look exactly like the toe pads of an enormous cat's paw print. Each pad is a bubble of hydrogen lit up by heavyweight newborn stars inside. Thousands of new stars are forming in this single paw, one of the busiest stellar nurseries of our galaxy.
