Runaway Star

NASA APOD
COSMIC MESSAGE

HD 77581 is a runaway star, a massive star speeding through interstellar space. As it plows through gas and dust, it creates a graceful, arcing bow shock, compressing the material in its path. Located over 6,000 light-years away in Vela, the star itself is so bright it saturates the camera, producing a distinctive spiky cross shape.
