🦉 M97 – The Owl Nebula. My first planetary nebula and my first LRGB + Hα/OIII workflow. 13h 20m captured from my Bortle 7 backyard in Munich with the EdgeHD 8". Lots learned on this one. 🔗 app.astrobin.com/i/c0kv62 #Astrophotography #Astronomy #Pixinsight #PlanetaryNebula

A green shell with an orange-red inner part. Small orange to red emissions outside the shell on the bottom and right. Many stars and galaxies are also seen. A star in the center is presumably the WR-star.

#PlanetaryNebula NGC 6537 (Red Spider Nebula 🕷️🔴) with #JWST NIRCam. 🔭

Blue is iron, green is molecular hydrogen and red is hydrogen emission (Brackett alpha)

A hourglass shaped green nebula with a red nebula at its center. Two arms on the top and bottom are also slightly blue.

🔭 The Dumbbell Nebula! 🌌

Captured by Luca Bartek using the #Celestron #C14 #EdgeHD, the #DumbbellNebula (M27) is a stunning example of a #planetarynebula.

Central part of the planetary nebula NGC 2440 with #JWST NIRCam. 🔭

In the middle you can see the central star that produced this nebula at the end of its life as a giant star and beginning of the new life as a white dwarf. #astronomy #planetarynebula ⭐

Yellow-green clouds with fine structures surround the central blue star and some parts seem to point towards the central star. Diffuse violet and some green light is also present.

The planetary nebula NGC 6337 with the VLT Survey Telescope (VST). Image created by me with data from the @eso.org archive science portal.

My processing from May 2023 on wikimedia: commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:NG...

This is one of my earlier uploads.

A blue star is surrounded by a green nebula. The green nebula has a inner circular nebula and an outer oval neebula. The inner circular nebula has little spikes poking out into the outer nebula. Other red and orange stars are in the image around and behind the nebula.

As I am now into my second year of astrophotography, I am re-imaging objects in the Cygnus-Cepheus-Cassiopeia constellation corridor with techniques I have improved upon. The area is chock-full of targets. So full, in fact, that I ran out of time last year to image this one before it passed out of view for the winter. Lobster Claw Nebula is a new one for me and I'm glad I finally got to it. This is an exciting target because most astro targets have a rounded, bulbous look, but the Lobster Claw has two arcs that converge to a definitive angled point, lending to its namesake. Even in sub-exposures, it's possible to make out a shape that resembles the business end of a lobster. The Lobster Claw Nebula is a planetary nebula 11,000 light years away and is primarily composed of Hydrogen. Stewart Sharpless discovered it in 1959. As a complete surprise, I also captured the Bubble Nebula, located near the bottom of the image. I didn't realize the two nebulae were so close to one another and will compose this differently in future imaging sessions.

It's a stellar mystery! A #planetarynebula is the cast-off outer layer of a dying star. Astronomers said late last month that they've analyzed data on planetary nebula #IC418. Its stellar core is heating up much faster than any star ever observed. 🌌🌟🔭

📸 NASA/ THHT (STScI/ AURA).
Planetary nebula IC418 appears as a cloudy oval with intricate patterns. The outer edge is reddish, and the rest of it is light purple. There is a light red central star.

I love me some dying stars!
Mostly when they explode violently…

BUT I can very much appreciate these ✨quieter✨ deaths too 🖤

Isn’t the Universe magical?! 🤩

Also, the Webb telescope creates cool diffraction spikes on the stars!

🤩 The MIRI instrument on the NASA/ESA/CSA James Webb Space Telescope has captured a dying star’s display in unprecedented detail.

Read more 👉 www.esa.int/ESA_Multimed...

🔭 🧪
What looks like a single large, bright star (but is two) shines with bright purple diffraction spikes at the center of a large, diffuse cylinder of gas and dust that is tipped to the right. At the center is a bright pink clumpy cloud that takes up about 25% of the view. There are two large rings seen at a roughly 60-degree angle that appear joined at top left and bottom right. The edges are denser, and form shallow V-shapes that go inward. The rings appear orange at top left and bottom right, and are blue at bottom and center right. There is diffuse orange material around the body. The black background of space is speckled with tiny stars and galaxies mostly in blues and yellows. Areas Webb did not observe are along the top edges, a thin vertical near the nebula at top left, and at the bottom left and right corners.
