    The red fuzzy object in the lower right corner of the image is probably a bubble produced by a luminous young star, even though there is not a well-defined green rim. The shapes of bubbles are often influenced by the surrounding material. In this case, the bubble may be expanding more easily to the right, than to the left, in the direction of the dark cloud, which contains denser material.
