Hubble Space Telescope image of NGC 7027, a small, bright, unusually shaped planetary nebula in the constellation Cygnus. The image shows intricate shells of gas and dust expelled from the dying star at its center, with a distinctive four-cornered pattern in red, superimposed on older blue shells. The nebula's complex structure, possibly formed by a binary star system, is highlighted in stunning detail.
