“Elusive Jellyfish Nebula” is copyrighted by Gerhard Bachmayer. NASA has permission to show it and we don't, so it isn't on this card.
See it on NASA's siteThe Jellyfish Nebula, IC 443, is a supernova remnant in Gemini, flanked by the stars Mu and Eta Geminorum. This wide-field view captures its faint, arcing ridge and dangling tentacles. It is the expanding cloud from a massive star that exploded, with light from the explosion first reaching Earth about 8,000 years ago.
