NGC 7635: The Bubble Nebula
NGC 7635, also called The Bubble Nebula, is a cloud of gas blown by a massive star. This delicate-looking bubble is 7 light-years across. At its center is a hot, O-type star, 45 times more massive than the Sun. Its fierce stellar wind and intense radiation carved out this shape.
