“Dumbbell Nebula Halo” is copyrighted by Robert Gendler. NASA has permission to show it and we don't, so it isn't on this card.
See it on NASA's siteCharles Messier first cataloged the Dumbbell Nebula, M27, in 1764, describing it as an oval nebula without stars. It's a planetary nebula, the remains of a star like our Sun that shed its outer layers. This deep image shows the nebula's central star and its elongated, dumbbell-like shape. It's about 1,360 light-years away in the constellation Vulpecula.
