This image portrays the impressive Wizard Nebula, located a short 8,000 light years away. Within this nebula, stars are being born which may outlive our sun, despite the short lifespan of the nebula itself. The wizard nebula contains extremely strong gravitational forces, which are required for the formation of stars, as well as powerful radiation. Visible with a small telescope, the Wizard Nebula is a striking image in our sky, and one which I hope to look on again in the future.
