COSMIC MESSAGE
This Hubble Space Telescope image shows NGC 7027, a star nearing the end of its life. The star first shed its outer atmosphere gently, creating faint spherical shells. Later, it ejected material in dense clumps, forming the bright inner regions and dust clouds. This process reveals the complex ways stars die.
