Description

NGC 1333 is a reflection nebula at about 1000 Al. It is characterized by being one of the closest star formations to Earth. The newly formed stars in NGC 1333 are no more than a million years old. Much of the light from these stars is obscured by the dark cloud of dust from which they formed.
