Cosmic Cliffs in the Carina Nebula (NIRCam Image)

What looks much like craggy mountains on a moonlit evening is actually the edge of a nearby, young, star-forming region NGC 3324 in the Carina Nebula. Captured in infrared light by the Near-Infrared Camera (NIRCam) on NASAs James Webb Space Telescope, this image reveals previously obscured areas of star birth.

Called the Cosmic Cliffs, the region is actually the edge of a gigantic, gaseous cavity within NGC 3324, roughly 7,600 light-years away. The cavernous area has been carved from the nebula by the intense ultraviolet radiation and stellar winds from extremely massive, hot, young stars located in the center of the bubble, above the area shown in this image. The high-energy radiation from these stars is sculpting the nebulas wall by slowly eroding it away.  

NIRCam  with its crisp resolution and unparalleled sensitivity  unveils hundreds of previously hidden stars, and even numerous background galaxies. Several prominent features in this image are described below.

-- The steam that appears to rise from the celestial mountains is actually hot, ionized gas and hot dust streaming away from the nebula due to intense, ultraviolet radiation. 

-- Dramatic pillars rise above the glowing wall of gas, resisting the blistering ultraviolet radiation from the young stars.

-- Bubbles and cavities are being blown by the intense radiation and stellar winds of newborn stars.

-- Protostellar jets and outflows, which appear in gold, shoot from dust-enshrouded, nascent stars.

-- A blow-out erupts at the top-center of the ridge, spewing gas and dust into the interstellar medium. 

-- An unusual arch appears, looking like a bent-over cylinder.

This period of very early star formation is difficult to capture because, for an individual star, it lasts only about 50,000 to 100,000 years  but Webbs extreme sensitivity and exquisite spatial resolution have chronicled this rare event.

Located roughly 7,600 light-years away, NGC 3324 was first catalogued by James Dunlop in 1826. Visible from the Southern Hemisphere, it is located at the northwest corner of the Carina Nebula (NGC 3372), which resides in the constellation Carina. The Carina Nebula is home to the Keyhole Nebula and the active, unstable supergiant star called Eta Carinae. 

NIRCam was built by a team at the University of Arizona and Lockheed Martins Advanced Technology Center.

the park

The Park is a group of friends, musicians, artists, producers, collaborators, instigators, and dance floor starters from the country of California.

Here to speak artist to artist and help revalue music together. 

Change takes time, The Park is here for you, URL in the discords, IRL on the road from Madison Square garden to that seedy dive bar, in the coffee shop, talking to friends, doing work together on the daily. 

Talking about change, Tess Henley shares: Rainwater is about regeneration and renewing ones self through lifes challenges. Everyone goes through change. For an artist or creative, regeneration almost seems to be in the DNA. Its exciting that this song is part of a community of people who are thinking about this need and putting it into action. Web3 + Music NFTs are that action for The Park and fellow artists creating new realities together on chain. We thank you for listening

RAINWATER
I am green 
I am a fragile being
I am grown in grace 
Bare the scars on my face 

Who you wish to see
Wont always be
What makes me 
Unapologetically free 

Anyone to be
But I need you more

Take a minute to see
What I love you for 

They call her 
Rainwater
They call her
Rainwater
Washed over and over anew
In everything true
They call her 
Rainwater
They call her
Rainwater
Washed over and over anew
In everything true
Rainwater 
Rainwater
Washed over and over anew
In everything true

They"re kinda cute and cuddly but kinda shitty friends too, but hey, we accept our friends with all their faults and just assume they"re doing their best. 

This project doesn"t have a discord or roadmap. It doesn"t come with any promises. If you want to build a community around it, go for it. I"m just a person with ideas that I feel I have to expunge of my soul and this is one of them. These brought me some joy and were fun to experiment with and I"m super happy with the final outcome. 

So pick up these affordable weirdos and do what you wish with them!
