Skull Nebula, variant

Edited European Southern Observatory image of the Skull Nebula, just in time for Halloween. Inverted grayscale variant.

 

Original caption: Captured in astounding detail by ESO’s Very Large Telescope (VLT), the eerie Skull Nebula is showcased in this new image in beautiful pink and red tones. This planetary nebula, also known as NGC 246, is the first known to be associated with a pair of closely bound stars orbited by a third outer star.
