Description

NGC 3324 an open cluster and IC 2599 an emission nebula together are more commonly known as the Gabriel Mistral Nebula due to their resemblance to the Chilean poet. The profile line that resembles a face is due to stellar winds coming from very young stars in the cluster. The teal-blue region reveals the double ionized oxygen (Oiii) atoms in the cluster. This object lies in the southern constellation of Carina at a distance of 9100 light-years from Earth.
