Vela nebulae

[Tom Davis (Tom)]

Here is a region in Vela not commonly imaged. It contains some interesting nebulae -- emission, reflection, dark, dusty. I put a mouse-over map of the nebulae. It may take a minute to load since the files are large.

That's just awesome Tom.

You are documenting what seems to be relatively uninspected areas.

Aren't a couple of those nebulas referred to as the Gum Nebulas?
