Rho Oph complex and the Ophiuchus cloud[edit]

The term "Rho Oph complex" used in literatures often refers to the star forming region directly south of the star system (roughly L1688), rho Ophiuchii. On the other hand, "the Ophiuchus cloud" is used to when talking about the larger entity that includes not only L1688 but also L1689, L1709, L1712, L1729, L1740, L1744, L1755 and L1765[1]. This entry not only seems to confuse the two definitions but also uses a few different terms(, including "the Rho Ophiuchii cloud") to describe the "cloud" this entry talks about. I think the entry should be renamed "the Ophiuchus cloud," since the term indicates the entity that includes all the entities behind these different names. And then, there should be a section explaining this naming confusion.

New picture from Webb[edit]

Today a new picture, taken by Webb, was published by NASA: https://www.nasa.gov/feature/goddard/2023/webb-celebrates-first-year-of-science-with-new-image It probably should be added to the gallery. Rps (talk) 10:34, 12 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
