NGC 3132: The Eight Burst Nebula

NASA APOD
COSMIC MESSAGE

The Eight-Burst Nebula, NGC 3132, is a planetary nebula created by a dim star, not the bright one, near its center. This glowing gas originated from the outer layers of a star similar to our Sun. The hot blue light surrounding the binary system is energized by the faint, hot star. This image highlights the nebula's unusual symmetries and asymmetries.
