Edited Spitzer Space Telescope image of the Cat's Paw Nebula in infrared. Color/processing variant.

 

Original caption: The Cat's Paw Nebula, imaged here by NASA's Spitzer Space Telescope using the MIPS and IRAC instruments, is a star-forming region that lies inside the Milky Way Galaxy. New stars may heat up the surrounding gas, which can expand to form "bubbles."
