“Underwater or interstellar?” the space agency asked in the first line of their post and then they added more information about the region.

“Nicknamed the “Cosmic Reef” for its undersea world resemblance, this massive star-forming region in the Large Magellanic Cloud is located 163,000 light-years away. This region features a giant red nebula, NGC 2014, and a smaller blue nebula, NGC 2020, housed in a bustling stellar birthplace,” they wrote.

“NGC 2014 contains a group of bright stars 10 to 20 times more giant than our Sun. Ultraviolet radiation from these stars heats surrounding gas as powerful stellar winds push dust across the nebula. NGC 2020 was created by an enormous star around 200,000 times brighter than our Sun, and got its blue appearance from gas that was ejected through a series of events that caused it to lose its outer envelope of material,” they added.

“Glorious,” wrote an Instagram user. “Absolutely astounding,” expressed another. “Wow, so amazing,” commented a third.
