In 1996, NASAHubble discovered a unique "eye" star in a young planetary nebula about 8,000 light-years away. 

The Cone Nebula, a pillar of gas and dust in the constellation Monoceros, is believed to be an incubator for developing stars. Over millions of years, radiation from hot stars erodes the nebula, forming hydrogen gas.

The Bubble Nebula, a 7 light-year-old sphere located 7,100 light-years from Earth, is formed by a 45-fold more massive star. 

NASAHubble telescope captured a glimpse of the Red Spider Nebula, a planetary nebula in the Sagittarius constellation.

This region of star formation contains the Pillars of Creation, which was made famous by the Hubble Space Telescope.

The Small Magellanic Cloud, 210,000 light-years away, contains a star cluster emitting UV rays. 

NASA Webb has discovered a nebula in the Perseus molecular cloud, revealing newly born brown dwarfs with masses comparable to giant planets.
