Cometary Globules Complex / CG30-31

Cometary globules are dense, compact clouds of gas and dust in space that often exhibit a distinct head-tail structure resembling a comet. These structures are typically found in H II regions, which are areas of ionized hydrogen gas associated with young, hot stars. Cometary globules are intriguing objects in astrophysics, as they may be sites of ongoing star formation.
