Dark Pillars in Orion
Image Description and Details : LDN 1622, also referred to as the Boogeyman Nebula, is a dark nebula that appears against the glowing Hydrogen of Barnard’s Loop in the constellation of Orion. However, LDN 1622 is thought to be much closer than Orion's more famous nebulae, perhaps only 500 light-years away. Its foreboding appearance lends this dark nebula its popular name, the Boogeyman Nebula.
