Description

RCW 99, an interesting HII region ionized by a group of stars, maybe including a giant and a supergiant, There is a open cluster in the nearby, the Trumpler 23, just below and to the right of the nebula. The cluster adds some beauty to the region.

Also part of my collection of small dust/nebulas of the kind of colour cotton balls.
