COSMIC MESSAGE

This image features the Headphone Nebula, also known as PK 164 +31.1 or Jones-Emberson 1. This planetary nebula is the remnant of a dying Sun-like star in the constellation Lynx. The red and bluish-green colors trace hydrogen and oxygen atoms, excited by the nebula's central white dwarf. The headphone shape is formed by two lobes of gas expanding from the star.
