Interesting Images

To mark the Hubble telescope’s 26th anniversary in space, scientists took a picture of the Bubble Nebula, which is basically a giant star blowing bubbles - it is a seven-light-year-wide pocket of gas being blown away by a blazing massive star about 7,100 light-years away in the constellation Cassiopeia. The star responsible for the bubbles is so hot and bright that it launches its own gas into space at more than 6 million kilometres per hour.
