Description

Sh2-101 Tulip Nebula and WR134 Wolf-Rayet star
This image was taken with a small lens, which allows me to capture a larger slice of the starry sky with a large field of view and low magnification. In the picture, that blue hedgehog is the product of a wolf-rayet star. It's a short-lived, very fiercely burning star with a stellar wind so strong that it blows apart the outer shell of the star. Named for its flowery appearance, the Tulip Nebula blooms in the vast garden of the Milky Way. This interstellar cloud of gas and dust is energised by ultraviolet light from the young, hot stars in and around it, which gives it its distinctive glow.
