Messier 57

September 2025

Messier 57, known as the Ring Nebula, is a planetary nebula about 2,300 light-years away in the constellation Lyra. It is the glowing remnant of a dying star, forming a bright ring of ionized gas surrounding a faint white dwarf at its center.

This one is harder to see, but looking closely, there are colored rings; red on the outside to blue on the inside.
