Saturn Nebula is a planetary nebula 4000 light years away in the constellation Aquarius. The colorful display is shells of gas being blown out feom the central star. It is the grand finale for this sun like star. #astrophotography #stellarvue140 #asi2600mm

I took this image of the Cigar Galaxy a few months ago. I then added the Hydrogen alpha signal (the red part in the middle).
