Discover the Mystique of M76

The Little Dumbbell Nebula is classified as a planetary nebula—a term that can be misleading, as it has nothing to do with planets. Instead, it represents an expanding shell of gas ejected from a dying red giant star, which eventually collapses into a hot white dwarf.

• Stunning Structure: M76 features a unique two-lobed shape that resembles a pinched balloon, with a central bar structure and two lobes extending outward. This striking appearance is not just beautiful; it tells the story of stellar evolution and cosmic transformation.
• Dynamic Forces at Play: The central star, one of the hottest stellar remnants known at an astonishing 120,000 degrees Celsius, propels gas at speeds reaching two million miles per hour. This stellar wind interacts with cooler gas from earlier stages of the star's life, creating a stunning display of colors—red from nitrogen and blue from oxygen.
• A Flash in Time: The Little Dumbbell Nebula is a fleeting spectacle in cosmic terms; it will vanish in about 15,000 years. Owning this poster means capturing a moment in time that will soon be lost to the universe.
