🧵 This stunning #Hubble image features the dual lobed planetary nebula NGC 2371/2, located in Gemini. NGC 2371/2 is a fascinating case study because it is not only an object of astonishing beauty, but also a natural laboratory for testing theories ➡️ esahubble.org/images/potw1... 🔭 🧪 #science
The image depicts a symmetrical, lobed structure forming a planetary nebula, with two distinct lobes extending to the upper right and lower left of the frame. At the center, a bright, orange/pinkish-tinted star, the superheated stellar remnant, sits prominently between the lobes. The surrounding area is filled with dense knots of gas, glowing brightly in patches due to the remnant star’s energetic radiation. Fast-moving jets, appearing to shift direction, and expanding clouds of material stream outward on opposite sides, creating a complex, dynamic visual texture against the dark backdrop of space. The prevailing color is pink.
