This Is The Trifid Nebula! 💞💞💞

Could I request a ditto please? I love that funky little blob

luckily for you, you get multiple blobs!

This is the Dumbbell Nebula! ⏳⏳⏳

Similar to many other planetary nebulae, the Dumbbell Nebula has a pattern of dark and bright knots made of gas and dust. These beautiful, ornate features are formed when stellar winds don’t fully blow away the nebula’s material and they leave a trail behind! 💘💘💘

The Exploding Galaxy is a starburst galaxy which may have been deformed by M81, another neighboring galaxy. 🌌

Starting in April 2010, the Exploding Galaxy started sending out strange radio signals and scientists to this day don’t understand them yet... 👽👽👽

This is the Orion Nebula! 🤩🤩🤩

It’s the closest star forming region to Earth and even visible without a telescope. In this image alone, there are almost 3000 stars! ✨✨✨

Some people think the Orion Nebula resembles a turkey - its body is the wide circular part and its head is the small circle off of the nebula. Can you see it? I hope you enjoy this stunning image for Thanksgiving! 🦃🦃🦃

This is the Lobster Nebula! 🦞🦞🦞

Despite this creative name, there were multiple petitions to change this nebula’s name to the Madokami Nebula (named after a character in the anime Madoka Magica) and the War and Peace Nebula (named after its resemblance to a skull and dove). The core of the nebula is the Pismis-24 cluster containing very massive stars up to 100 solar masses each! ✨✨✨

This is the Eagle Nebula! 🦅🦅🦅

This young cluster of stars and the distinct Pillars of Creation at the center of the nebula are located in the constellation of Serpens. These stars, which were formed in the HII region of this nebula, are very massive: some of them are up to 1 million solar luminosities! ✨✨✨
