The Lagoon Nebula M8 is a diffuse nebula in the constellation Sagittarius. It is one of the brightest regions in the sky and is visible to the naked eye on clear, dark nights.
One of the main features of the Lagoon Nebula is the presence of small black spots known as Bok globules, which are protostellar clouds.
The brightest region of the nebula, at the centre of the Lagoon, is known as the Hourglass Nebula and is a region of intense star formation.
