Artist's Description
Behold the Eye of God.
Some stars die slowly, giving off puffs of gas and dust known as planetary nebulas to reveal small white dwarfs. Much larger stars die suddenly in powerful explosions known as supernovas, blasting gas, dust, and energy out in all directions as they collapse to form tiny neutron stars or black holes. The gas and dust expelled by dying stars eventually combines with the remains of others to form new stars and planets.
This is the Helix Nebula, a planetary nebula that formed when it's central star exhausted its hydrogen fuel and trandformed into a small White Dwarf star. The star's outer layers expanded and cooled, creating a huge envelope of dust and gas. Radiation flowing from the dying star ionizes this envelope, causing it to glow. As the glowing shells of gas expand over 10,000 years, they eventually thin out and become part of the interstellar medium. Planetary nebulas provide a snapshot of a transitional phase in the life and death of a star.
