COSMIC MESSAGE

NGC 7635, also known as The Bubble Nebula, is a ten-light-year diameter bubble blown by the wind from a hot, bright star. This image, combining hydrogen-alpha and color exposures, reveals the delicate yet violent processes at work. The star creating the bubble is visible above and to the left of its center.
