These two images of Messier 8, otherwise known as the Lagoon Nebula, show two different views of the object. On the left, we see a visible-light image that shows the gas and dust clouds while the near-infrared image on the right shows us the stars behind the clouds. This object is a definite must-see during the Messier Marathon. Credit: NASA, ESA and STScI
