NGC 2736

NGC 2736 is a supernova remnant in the Vela constellation, around 815 light years from earth.

 

This structure is believed to be the result of a supernova that occurred roughly 11000 years ago. The shock wave from said supernova collided with the surrounding gas/dust, creating patterns/structure and causing it to glow because of the sheer amount of energy involved.
