Journey to Planetary Nebula NGC 2899 in Vela | Hubble FriendsofNASA.org: This video takes the viewer through space to reveal a new NASA/European Space Agency Hubble Space Telescope image that captures the beauty of the moth-like planetary nebula NGC 2899. This object has a diagonal, bipolar, cylindrical outflow of gas. This is propelled by radiation and stellar winds from a nearly 22,000 degree Celsius white dwarf at the center. In fact, there may be two companion stars that are interacting and

Close-up: Planetary Nebula NGC 6072 in Scorpius | James Webb Space Telescope FriendsofNASA.org: The NASA/European Space Agency/Canadian Space Agency James Webb Space Telescope’s view of planetary nebula NGC 6072 in the near-infrared shows a complex scene of multiple outflows expanding out at a variety of angles from a dying star at the center of the scene. These outflows push gas toward the equatorial plane, forming a disc. Astronomers suspect there is at least one other star interacting with th
