2026 Deep Space and Planets

Barnard 211 in Taurus Molecular Cloud

This is a structure in the Taurus Molecular Cloud, about 450 light years away in the Milky Way. It is the closest star nursery to Earth. It is my first dark nebula complex, and I imaged it from the Mojave Desert in California in just one night, while traveling.
