Planetary Nebula

Located approximately 3,000 light-years away in the constellation Sagittarius, this planetary nebula is home to one of the most scorching stars in the universe.

NGC 2346 is a so-called "planetary nebula," which is ejected from Sun-like stars which are near the ends of their lives.

Most planetary nebulae are roughly circular, but a few have an hourglass or wing-like shape, like the aptly named 'Butterfly Nebula'.

The oldest visible planetary nebula has been discovered by astronomers inside a 500-million-year-old galactic open cluster. These planetary nebulas are glowing shrouds ejected from dying stars, which present a spectacular sight. Believed to be of high astrophysical value, the rare celestial jewel has been discovered inside a cluster called M37 and ...

Two cameras aboard the James Webb Space Telescope- world's largest and most powerful space telescope- captured the latest image of planetary nebula NGC 3132.

Scientists at NASA using the Hubble Space Telescope have spotted what looks like a colourful holiday ornament in space - a planetary nebula with glowing wisps of outpouring gas that are lit up by a central star nearing the end of its life.

NASA's Hubble telescope has stumbled upon a little colourful gem nebula - an interstellar cloud of dust, hydrogen, helium and other ionised gases.

Astronomers have resolved a 30-year-old argument, ruling out a one-size-fits-all mechanism for shaping some of the most beautiful objects in space.
