Christmas Tree Cluster259 viewsThe Christmas Tree Cluster is left of centre and surrounded by (bluish) reflection nebula. Below this is the Cone Nebula. Its shape comes from a dark absorption nebula in front of the bright emission nebula. The faint but rich cluster just below centre is Trumpler 5 – very old at 3 billion years. To the right is blue reflection nebula VdB78. Trickiest to spot is Hubble's Variable Nebula. Looking like a tiny comet, it is located near to the bottom about a third the way in from the left.
