NGC 1999
NGC 1999 is a reflection nebula located in the constellation Orion.
It is notable for its striking appearance, which includes a dark patch that resembles a hole in the surrounding gas and dust.
This dark region is often referred to as the "hole" in NGC 1999, and it is thought to be a result of the absorption of light by the dust in the nebula.
