Like a flower blooming in a field of dark dust, this nebula in Cepheus reflects the light of a star living within it. Darkness reigns all around, and it is the darkness that sets off its petals of light. To give this midnight bloom is to celebrate someone who found a way to flower where nothing seemed to allow it.
