Explanation: Dark markings and bright nebulae in this telescopic southern sky view are telltale signs of young stars and active star formation. They lie a mere 650 light-years away, at the boundary of the local bubble and the Chamaeleon molecular cloud complex. Regions with young stars identified as dusty reflection nebulae from the 1946 Cederblad catalog include the C-shaped Ced 110 just above and left of center, and bluish Ced 111 below it. Also a standout in the frame, the orange tinted V-shape of the Chamaeleon Infrared Nebula (Cha IRN) was carved by material streaming from a newly formed low-mass star. The well-composed image spans 1.5 degrees. That's about 17 light-years at the estimated distance of the nearby Chamaeleon I molecular cloud.

I really wish they would release some of these in proper monitor background resolution sizes
Yeah right,
The dust is clearing so a star is brighter and that means a star is being born.
Just Buffoonery!
Just use the stretch option when you set as background. Resolution problem solved and they fit just fine. At least it does in windows 10.
of course, but then it is stretched kinda like the biden
I have been doing photostyling since before there was photoshop and can easily do it properly, but lots of people look at these and might want some of them and their tax dollars paid for them (that is why they publish them after all) and I cannot share my work with everyone
if they would go the extra step and create various resolution wallpaper it would take them a few hours, after critically figuring out how best to crop the image.
I will probably ask them nicely if they can do this now that the pandemic is over.
