Lifting the veil ✨ Hubble's view of the Veil Nebula shows the remnants of a star's explosive death in a supernova. This star was about 20 times as massive as our Sun, and exploded 10,000 years ago. Hubble has observed the Veil Nebula multiple times, allowing scientists to track how this supernova remnant evolves over decades. Image credit: ESA/Hubble & NASA, R.

Buckle up! Take a trip through this Hubble visualization of the Veil Nebula.This shows the remnants of a star that exploded many thousands of years ago! The whole nebula stretches about 110 light-years across, though this view shows only a small fraction. The Veil Nebula resides around 2,100 light-years away from us, in the constellation Cygnus (the Swan). Visualization credit: NASA, ESA, and F. Summers, G. Bacon, Z. Levay, and L.

Panning across The Veil Nebula | Hubble FriendsofNASA.org: This video pans over NASA/European Space Agency Hubble Space Telescope observations of the Veil Nebula. The features of the nebula, shown in different colors, are caused by the shockwave of the dying star and the interstellar gas it was surrounded by.
