  1. The Bubble Nebula, #NGC7635, was created by a hot star at its centre creating stellar winds. This is a false-color photo made from emission spectral bands with all the stars removed. Shot from my backyard setup. #astrophotography

  2. #SkyWatch #Astrophotography #NGC7635 aka the #Bubble Nebula is a hydrogen II emission area about 8000 light years away in the #Cassiopeia constellation. The "bubble" is being formed by a massive short-lived star blowing away its hydrogen and now fusing helium in its core. Because of clouds and smoke, I was only able to capture 30 minutes (6x300 seconds) of exposure. This is a crop of a larger image. #StillLearning

  3. NGC 7635 Bubble Nebula

    Magnitude 10.0 emission nebula located 7,100 light-years away in the constellation Cassiopeia. It was discovered by William Herschel in 1787. The "bubble" is created by the stellar wind from a massive hot central star, SAO 20575.

  4. The Hubble Space Telescope captured this image of an enormous bubble being blown into space by a super-hot, massive star. The Bubble Nebula, or NGC 7635, is 7 light-years across — about one-and-a-half times the distance from our Sun to its nearest stellar neighbor, Alpha Centauri.
