This colourful image shows a cosmic lighthouse known as the Egg Nebula, which lies around 3000 light-years from Earth.

The Egg Nebula is a ‘preplanetary nebula’. These objects occur as a dying star’s hot remains briefly illuminates material it has expelled, lighting up the gas and dust that surrounds it.

Although the dying star is hidden behind the thick dust lane that streaks down the centre of this image, it is revealed by the four lighthouse-like beams clearly visible through the veil of dust that lies beyond the central lane.

The concentric rings seen in the less dense cloud surrounding the star are due to the star ejecting material at regular intervals – typically every hundred years – during a phase of the star’s evolution just prior to this preplanetary nebula phase.

$In the image center, an opaque oval cloud of gray gas aligned from 1 o\u2019clock to 7 o\u2019clock hides a star. Two strong beams of light from the star emerge from large holes in both sides of the cloud, forming narrow cones extending toward 10 o\u2019clock and 4 o\u2019clock. The central cloud is surrounded by concentric, wispy shells of gas illuminated by the star\u2019s light. The shells reflect extra light where they\u2019re hit by the twin beams. A crowd of smaller stars with cross-shaped spikes over them surrounds the nebula on a black background.$

$A closeup of a small section of the Helix Nebula, an expanding shell of gas and dust. Thousands of orange and gold comet-like pillars stream upward from the bottom, like thin liquid blown up a sheet of glass. These pillars are around the circumference of the arced shell, which forms a partial orange semi-circle at the bottom. The pillars are more numerous and denser at the bottom, and darker red. They fade to orange and then yellow in the arc. In the top two-thirds, they are thinner and more golden, and it’s easier to see the black background of space. Several bright blue stars, some with diffraction spikes, are scattered throughout. A few larger stars are on the right side. "Webb" is labeled on the right in transclucent white.

Shining blue stars are sprinkled throughout glowing clouds of orange, pink and bluish gas, alongside dark clouds of dust. A particularly bright star shines against the inky dark dust of the lower right quadrant.

A small, bluish cloud edged in red gas is in the center of a field thick with multicolored stars.

$Within a field of glittering multicolored stars, bluish clouds of gas edged in glowing red cluster at the top of the image and in a bubble-shaped clump to the mid-right. A single shining star throws diffraction spikes across the upper left of the image.$

A bright, glowing cloud of orange gas is situated in the center of dark dust clouds and a field of stars.

I was overthinking and listening to music while doing the dishes when it happend. But ive been there before, it had a nostalgia to it, and it had a sort of "flow" to it that i could navigate as if i knew the place like the back of my hand.

Were getting closer to where were trying to go.

A digital illustration of a star going supernova, surrounded by a gaseous disc in orange and red tones. The star is seen exploding in an olive shape, directed above and below the star.

For the first time ever, astronomers have unveiled the shape of a supernova explosion just a day after detection, as the blast was breaking through the star’s surface.

Achieved by our VLT, this feat will help us understand how massive stars die: https://www.eso.org/public/news/eso2520/
