The cosmic microwave background (CMB) is light that has been travelling towards us for almost the entire age of the Universe. The light was set on its path at the moment atoms formed, just 400,000 years after the big bang, and about 13.8 billion years ago. As the Universe matured and expanded, galaxies and galaxy clusters formed, hot beds of star formation, gas, dust, black holes, and other matter.

Loops and Nebulae

Profile picture for user Jesse Rogerson
Jesse Rogerson, PhD

It is approximately 500 light years away (meaning, it takes light about 500 years to travel the distance), and about 10 light-years across (which would be about 10x bigger than our solar system). Lynds' list originally contained 1802 objects she found by visual inspection of the Palomar Observatory Sky Survey (POSS I) catalog. POSS I was a survey that imaged
