The sky on
your birthday.
“The Pistachio Nebula” is copyrighted by Bray Falls & Chester Hall-Fernandez. NASA has permission to show it and we don't, so it isn't on this card.
See it on NASA's siteThe Pistachio Nebula, a newly discovered and faint cloud of gas and dust, is nearly the size of the full Moon. Unlike most new nebulae found by large professional telescopes, this one was discovered by amateur astronomers. It shows that even small telescopes, with long exposures, can reveal previously unknown features in the sky.
