Hubble Prawn Nebula IC 4628
NASA / ESA’s Hubble Space Telescope captured this dazzling image of the Prawn Nebula, classified as IC 4628, located 6,000 light-years from Earth in the constellation Scorpius. The nebula stretches roughly 250 light-years across, covering a space four times the size of the full moon. However, it emits light primarily in wavelengths the human eye cannot detect, making the nebula extremely faint to earthbound viewers.
