NGC 6727: The Rampaging Baboon Nebula

A stunning image of a star-forming region in the Corona Australis constellation, resembling a baboon's face. The "eyes" are blue reflection nebulae (NGC 6726, 6727, 6729, and IC 4812), and the "mouth" is a red emission nebula glowing from hydrogen gas. A distant globular cluster (NGC 6723) is visible near the "head." The brown dust clouds obscure background stars, highlighting the active stellar nursery just 500 light-years away.
