NGC 3918 illustration | Glass Gallery
Studying planetary nebulae is important to understanding the process of star death. A star begins to die when it has exhausted its thermonuclear fuel - hydrogen and helium. The star then becomes bright and cool (red giant phase) and swells to several tens of times its normal size. It begins puffi...

The planetary nebula NGC 5979 | Glass Gallery
This previously unreleased colour image of the planetary nebula NGC 5979 is a composite of raw FITS files made with the ESA/ESO/NASA Photoshop FITS Liberator. The image was composed from four individual exposures taken through: A blue narrow-band filter (502 nm, 460 seconds showing the forbidden ...

Jets from Young Star | Glass Gallery
This Hubble Space Telescope image reveals new secrets of star birth as revealed in a pair of eerie spectacular jet of gas the star has ejected by a young star. Top Image Tip to tip, this jet spans slightly more than a light-year. The fountainhead of this structure -- the young star -- lies midway...

Stereo image of the Veil Nebula | Glass Gallery
This is a stereo image of the Veil Nebula, using observations made by the NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope in 1997 and in 2015. If looked at them cross-eyed these two-dimensional images are then combined by the brain to give the perception of 3D depth. This illusion is created due to the movements...

Hubble provides two sharp eyes to see birth of stars in galactic wreckage | Glass Gallery
The revived Near Infrared Camera and Multi-Object Spectrometer (NICMOS) aboard the NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope has penetrated dust layers in a star-forming cloud to uncover a dense, craggy edifice of dust and gas [image at right]. This region is called the Cone Nebula (NGC 2264), so named bec...
