NGC 6188 glows crimson
An image of the emission nebula NGC 6188 taken by ESO's 3.6-meter Telescope at the La Silla observatory in Chile in 1986. The nebula is located in the southern constellation Ara and is about 4,000 light-years away. Radiation from stars within the nebula heats up the surrounding gases, making them glow.
