Messier 20, commonly known as the Trifid Nebula, is a composite nebula in the constellation Sagittarius located about 9,000 light‑years from Earth. It features three distinct components—an emission nebula, a reflection nebula, and dark dust lanes that divide it into three lobes—making it a prominent site of ongoing star formation.
