Wide-field View of The Serpent's Nebula | European Southern Observatory
This image from the Digitized Sky Survey (DSS) shows the area around the Serpens Nebula. The Serpens star-forming region is a compact region of star formation. At a distance of about 1,300 light-years, it is close enough for detailed, spatially-resolved studies of its individual young stellar objects.
