IC 418: The Spirograph #Nebula
The Spirograph Nebula (IC 418) displays mysterious patterns possibly due to its central star's chaotic winds. Once like our Sun, it evolved from a red giant to shedding its outer layers, leaving a core that will become a white dwarf. Located 2000 light-years away, this #Hubble image captures its enigmatic glow.

The Orion #Nebula in Visible and #Infrared
The Orion Nebula, visible to the naked eye, is a vibrant mix of young stars, hot gas, and dust. This image combines visible and infrared light from Spitzer #Telescope, revealing shock waves and the Trapezium's bright stars. Spanning 40 light-years, it's 1500 light-years away in our #Galaxy's spiral arm.
