4.8 LAAAAST APOOD!

For my very last apod blog ever, I chose the photo entitled "The Ellusive Jellyfish Nebula". This is another photo which is in false color, although it looks pretty amazing. The photo also contains emission nebula Sharpless 249. The jellyfish nebula is 5,000 lightyears away from Earth. The colors come from the mapping of oxygen, hydrogen, and sulfur. I'm gonna miss you next year Mr. Percieval! Astronomy was really fun! =)

    This isn't our original planet. We are merely terra-forming bacteria. What then of artists?
