It is a Nebula (Nebula NGC 6751) consisting of gas ejected from the star in the center. The colors actually represent the tempreture of the gas. Blue is the hottest with orange and red showing cooler gasses.

The one and only. The image was "taken" in 1998.

Excellent. Who needs Photoshop when you have Hubble?

Yup. And I know so little about photoshop that I wouldn't get close to creating anything so breath-taking as Hubble images. And most importantly they are real (in a way), so that makes them even more spectacular.

Nature's first green is gold, Her hardest hue to hold. Her early leaf's a flower; But only so an hour. Then leaf subsides to leaf. So Eden sank to grief, So dawn goes down to day. Nothing gold can stay. <Robert Frost> "Nothing Gold Can Stay"

The problem is I'm running out of space pics. I've already gotten the best NASA has to offer, but I'll keep looking. Guess I should start on my own work in the meantime.

Don't start with Big Brother, I'll have to start looking for telescreens again. A beautiful pic nonetheless, very evocative.
