Dust and the Helix Nebula
The Spitzer Space Telescope shows the Helix Nebula, NGC 7293, in infrared light, making it look like a red cosmic eye. This planetary nebula, 700 light-years away in Aquarius, is a shroud of dust and gas around a central white dwarf. Spitzer data reveal the central star is immersed in a dusty disk.
