Starforming Region Ngc 3324 In The Carina Nebula. Desk Mat
A nearby, young, star-forming region NGC 3324 in the Carina Nebula. Captured in infrared light by the Near-Infrared Camera (NIRCam) on the James Webb Space Telescope. Called the Cosmic Cliffs, the region is actually the edge of a gigantic, gaseous cavity within NGC 3324, roughly 7,600 light-years away. The cavernous area has been carved from the nebula by the intense ultraviolet radiation and stellar winds from extremely massive, hot, young stars located in the centre of the bubble, above the area shown in this image. The high-energy radiation from these stars is sculpting the nebula's wall by slowly eroding it away. This period of very early star formation is difficult to capture because, for an individual star, it lasts only about 50,000 to 100,000 years - but Webb's extreme sensitivity and exquisite spatial resolution have chronicled this rare event. Located roughly 7,600 light-years away, NGC 3324 was first catalogued by James Dunlop in 1826. Visible from the Southern Hemisphere, it is located at the northwest corner of the Carina Nebula (NGC 3372), which resides in the constellation Carina. The Carina Nebula is home to the Keyhole Nebula and the active, unstable supergiant star called Eta Carinae.

LOVE this desk mat! It's large! It fits across my desk. No need for a small mouse pad now! Color and print are excellent. Quality seems to be excellent too. Delivery was about 3 days sooner than expected. I think this is one of my favorite Zazzle products! Excellent. The color is vibrant and true to what I expected.
