Pre-planetary nebula, HST image C013 / 5017
Pre-planetary nebula. Hubble Space Telescope (HST) image of the pre-planetary nebula IRAS 23166+1655 (spiral at left). Behind the spiral of gas is thought to be a binary star system. It is located in the constellation Pegasus, approximately 50 million light years from Earth. The large bright object at right is a star that is much closer to Earth than IRAS 23166+1655.

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the mesmerizing beauty of a pre-planetary nebula known as IRAS 23166+1655, located in the constellation Pegasus, approximately 50 million light years away from Earth. The Hubble Space Telescope (HST) captured this image using its Wide Field Channel of the Advanced Camera for Surveys. In this stunning composition, we witness a spiral of gas enveloping what is believed to be a binary star system hidden behind it. The intricate spiralling structure adds an element of mystery and intrigue to this celestial phenomenon. On the right side of the image, a large bright star shines brilliantly, contrasting with the distant pre-planetary nebula. The scientific significance of this photograph lies in its representation of stellar evolution and protoplanetary formation. It offers astronomers valuable insights into how stars evolve and eventually give rise to planetary systems like our own. This awe-inspiring visual masterpiece was brought to us by NASA/ESA/STScI/SCIENCE PHOTO LIBRARY, showcasing their commitment to unraveling the mysteries that lie beyond our planet's boundaries.
