IC 418: The Spirograph Nebula

NASA APOD
COSMIC MESSAGE

The Spirograph Nebula, IC 418, has patterns that are not well understood. Its strange texture might be related to chaotic winds from its variable central star. The star changes brightness unpredictably in just a few hours. Only a few million years ago, IC 418 was probably a star similar to our Sun.
