The Elephant's Trunk Nebula
The Elephant's Trunk Nebula is a concentration of interstellar gas and dust within the larger region of the emission nebula IC 1396, located in the constellation Cepheus. It is approximately 2,400 light-years away from Earth. The nebula gets its name from its long, sinuous shape that resembles an elephant's trunk. The Elephant's Trunk Nebula is a site of active star formation, and it contains several young stellar objects and protostars. The region is illuminated by a massive star, which causes the gas and dust to glow, creating a stunning visual spectacle captured in this image.
