“Veil Nebula: Wisps of an Ancient Supernova” is copyrighted by Abdullah Alharbi. NASA has permission to show it and we don't, so it isn't on this card.
See it on NASA's siteWisps like this are all that remain visible of a Milky Way star. About 7,000 years ago, that star exploded in a supernova, leaving the Veil Nebula. At the time, the expanding cloud was likely as bright as a crescent Moon, remaining visible for weeks. Today, the resulting supernova remnant, also known as the Cygnus Loop, has faded and is visible only through a small telescope toward Cygnus.
