Nebula Omega (M17) in Sagittarius - The Omega Nebula (M17) in the constellation Sagittarius - View of the nebula Omega (M17/NGC 6618) located in the constellation Sagittarius at a distance of 5700 light years. The Omega Nebula, Messier object 17 (M17), NGC 6618, in the constellation Sagittarius is a bright nebula, criss - crossed by clouds and lanes of opaque dust and gas. It is also known as the Swan Nebula and the Horseshoe Nebula. At a distance of 5700 light - years, M17 is also a source of radio noise

Omega nebula (M17) in Sagittarius - The Omega nebula (M17) in Sagittarius - View of the Omega nebula (M17/NGC 6618) located in the constellation Sagittarius at a distance of 5700 light years. This object derives its name from its looped shape reminiscent of the Greek letter when the nebula is seen in a telescope. The gas cloud is unusual in that it does not appear to be illuminated by the bright stars that commonly found in emission nebulae such as this. However, the nebulosity is very bright, so the exciting stars must be hidden within the cloud, an idea confirmed by the infrared brightness of the nebula. It is about 6000 light years distant

As well as exciting the nebula we can see, the embedded stars heat the dust that surrounds them, so M17 is one of the brightest objects in the infrared sky. It is about 6000 light years distant

Omega nebula (M17) in Sagittarius - The Omega nebula (M17) in Sagittarius - View of the Omega nebula (M17/NGC 6618) located in the constellation Sagittarius at a distance of 5700 light years. Image obtained by the VST (VLT Survey Telescope) in Chile in June 2011. The first released VST image shows the spectacular star - forming region Messier 17, also known as the Omega Nebula or the Swan Nebula, as it has never been seen before. This vast region of gas, dust and hot young stars lies in the heart of the Milky Way in the constellation of Sagittarius (The Archer). The VST field of view is so large that the entire nebula, including its fainter outer parts, is captured - - and retains its superb sharpness across the entire image

Region around M24 in Sagittarius - Area around M24 in Sagittarius - Image centred on the group of stars M24 in Sagittarius with at the top, the nebula Omega. To the right of the nebula, a weak nebula, IC 4701. Also visible are the cluster of stars M18, dark nebulae B92 and B93, and at the bottom of the picture a star shooting near nebulae NGC 6589 - 90 and IC 1283 - 4. Here is an interesting and particularly rich section of the Milky Way in Sagittarius. At top left in the frame is the red emission nebula M17, also known as the Swan or Omega nebula. Below and to the right of M17, is the faint emission nebula IC 4701. Below M17 and to the lower left of IC 4701 is open cluster M18. Taking up the entire lower center of the frame is M24, the small Sagittarius Star Cloud. Embedded in M24 is open cluster NGC 6603, just to the left of center. To the right of NGC 6603 are two dark nebulae, B92 and B93. At the bottom of the frame is red emission nebula IC 1283/84, and blue reflection nebulae NGC

The Omega nebula (M17) seen in infrared - M17 nebula in infrared - The Omega nebula (M17) seen in infrared by the Spitzer space telescope. M17 is a star-forming region about 6000 light years ago in the constellation Sagittarius. In the center of the nebula is a group of massive stars. The dust appears in red, the hot gas in green, the regions or this gas and the dust mixes in white. Nasa's Spitzer Space Telescope has captured an infrared view of the star - making cloud called M17, or the Swan nebula. The cloud, located about 6,000 light - years away in the constellation Sagittarius, is dominated by a central group of massive stars - - the most massive stars in the region. These central stars give off intense flows of expanding gas, which rush like rivers against dense piles of material, carving out the deep pocket at center of the picture. Winds from the region's other massive stars push back against these oncoming rivers, creating bow shocks like those that pile up in front of speedin

Region near the Omega nebula (M17) in Sagittarius - Area near Omega nebula (M17) in Sagittarius - Region around the Omega nebula. Under the nebula, the cluster of stars M18, towards the middle, the group of stars M24, at the bottom of the picture the nebulae NGC 6589 - 90 and IC 1283 - 4. A little below the bright red emission nebula M17 is M18, a group of stars which is only conspicuous because, like M17, it is set in a relatively dark region of the Milky Way. The rich cloud of stars more or less in the middle of the photograph was listed by Messier as number 24 in his catalogue and it contains the open cluster NGC 6603, while towards the bottom of this field is a small group of nebulosities, the two blue reflection nebulae NGC 6589 - 90 and the emission nebulae IC 1283 - 4

Detail in the nebula Omega (M17) - Part of M17 nebula - Detail in the nebula Omega (M17), a region of star formation. Image obtained from the 3.5-metre NTT telescope of the European Observatory of La Silla in Chile. The Omega Nebula (M17) is one of the youngest and most massive star - forming regions in the Milky Way. Active star - birth started a few million years ago and continues through today. The brightly shining gas shown in this picture is just a blister erupting from the side of a much larger dark cloud of molecular gas. The dust that is so prominent in this picture comes from the remains of massive hot stars that have ended their brief lives and ejected material back into space, as well as the cosmic detritus from which future suns form. Three - colour composite image of the Omega Nebula (Messier 17), based on images obtained with the EMMI instrument on the ESO 3.58 - metre New Technology Telescope at the La Silla Observatory.
