Lobster Claw Nebula Premium Wooden Framed Poster With Museum-Quality Matte Paper

The Lobster Claw Nebula, also known as NGC 6357, is a striking and complex region of space located in the constellation Scorpius. This nebula is a stellar nursery, where new stars are being born from the surrounding gas and dust. It earned its nickname due to its appearance, which resembles a lobster’s claw or pincer.

The nebula is a vast and intricate cloud of ionized hydrogen gas, illuminated by the intense radiation from nearby young, hot stars. This ionization causes the nebula to emit a vivid glow, highlighting its dynamic and turbulent nature. The Lobster Claw Nebula spans about 200 light-years across and is part of a larger star-forming complex.

One of the most fascinating features of the Lobster Claw Nebula is the presence of several massive stars and clusters that have sculpted the surrounding gas and dust into dramatic shapes and structures. These stars, through their powerful stellar winds and radiation, contribute to the complex interplay of light and shadow within the nebula, creating a stunning and ever-changing cosmic landscape.

Overall, the Lobster Claw Nebula is a breathtaking example of the beauty and complexity of stellar formation and the intricate processes that shape the universe.

Features:

• Our Premium Wooden Framed Posters highlight the natural beauty of real wood grain. We have carefully selected oak and ash for their distinct grain visibility and pronounced pattern, framing your artwork with nature’s finest materials.
• Our frames come in 3 colors: natural wood, black, and white.
• With a 20mm (0.79”) thickness and width, the FSC- certified premium wooden frame has a wider profile compared to our classic frame of 14mm (0.55”). It will be a striking presence on your walls.
• Our Plexiglass material provides a flawless protective layer that allows your creativity to shine while safeguarding against damage. Available in a range of thicknesses, from 1.0-1.2 mm (0.04"-0.05") for small to medium sizes, and a sturdier 2.0-2.5 mm (0.08"-0.1") for larger dimensions, your art is safe in our frames.
• Our matte paper is uncoated and natural white (off-white). The 250 gsm/ 110lb paper is perfect for fine art, designed to last for years without losing its original beauty.
• With alkaline papermaking technology, this poster is acid-free, meaning the pH of the pulp that is used to form the paper is above 7 (neutral). The paper is also buffered with an alkaline reserve, such as calcium carbonate, to neutralize acid compounds absorbed from the atmosphere or formed through natural aging. This ensures that your poster will last many years without any yellowing or discoloration.
• Our poster is free from or low in OBA (optical brightener additives). This ensures that the natural white color of the paper remains consistent under different lighting conditions. In contrast, the color of papers that contain optical brighteners can shift depending on the light source. Additionally, the color of OBA-free paper remains more consistent over time, so you can enjoy the poster for years without any shifts.
• The poster is ready-to-hang as the poster is delivered within the frame. It is ready to be hung directly on the wall.
• We use FSC-certified paper and frame or equivalent certifications depending on regional availability. It’s better for the people and the planet.
• Each poster and frame is shipped in robust packaging, ensuring it arrives in pristine condition.
• Paper sizes may vary slightly by region. For the US and Canada, the measurement is in inches, while for the rest of the world, it is in centimeters.
• For indoor use.
• We print and ship on demand with no minimum orders required.
