The Butterfly Nebula from Upgraded Hubble
NGC 6302, the Butterfly Nebula, is a planetary nebula where a dying star has shed its outer layers. The central star is incredibly hot, about 250,000 degrees Celsius, but it is hidden by a dense dust torus. This detailed image was taken by the Hubble Space Telescope after its upgrade.
