Hubble Space Telescope Serves Up Holiday Snow Angel
NASA's Hubble Space Telescope captured an image of Sharpless 2-106, a bipolar star-forming region. The image resembles a soaring, celestial snow angel. NASA says, "Twin lobes of super-hot gas, glowing blue in this image, stretch outward from the central star. This hot gas creates the 'wings' of our angel."
You can see an extra large version of the space angel here. Here is a video:
