Orion Nebula (Hubble & Spitzer Telescopes) Post Cards

Photograph of the Orion Nebula This image shows stars, dust and gas inside the Orion Nebula, 1500 light years from Earth. This is a composite photo, based on ultraviolet and visible light images from the Hubble Space Telescope, and infrared views from the Spitzer Space Telescope. The result shows a swirling mass of gas and dust in shades of orange, green, blue and purple, spotted with bright stars. (The colours have been enhanced slightly here.)

Helix Nebula Business Card

“The Helix is a planetary nebula, the glowing gaseous envelope expelled by a dying, sun-like star. The Helix resembles a simple doughnut as seen from Earth. But looks can be deceiving. New evidence suggests that the Helix consists of two gaseous disks nearly perpendicular to each other.”(qtd. from HubbleSite.org NewsCenter release STScI-2004-32)Credit: NASA, ESA, C.R. O'Dell (Vanderbilt University), M. Meixner and P. McCullough (STScI)

Butterfly Nebula Print

Butterfly Emerges from Stellar Demise in Planetary Nebula NGC 6302 From Wikipedia: NGC 6302 (also called the Bug Nebula or Butterfly Nebula), is a bipolar planetary nebula in the constellation Scorpius. It is one of the most interesting and complex planetary nebulae observed. The spectrum of NGC 6302 shows its central star is one of the hottest objects in the galaxy, with a surface temperature in excess of 200,000 K, implying that the star from which it formed must have been very large. The central star has never been observed and is surrounded by a particularly dense equatorial disc composed of gas and dust. This dense disc is postulated to have caused the star's outflows to form a bipolar structure (Gurzadyan 1997), similar to an hour-glass. This bipolar structure shows many interesting features seen in planetary nebulae such as ionization walls, knots and sharp edges to the lobes.
