Hubble Telescope shows an angel in the sky?

The Hubble telescope has provided some extraordinary pictures since it was launched in 1990, but few as intriguing as this one.

The Carina Nebula is a large, luminous cloud of interstellar gas, located in the constellation of Carina. In fact, it is enormous, measuring 200 light years in diameter (that's two thousand million million kilometers across!). What's even more intriguing is that part of it looks like angel with one white wing and one black wing looking solemnly down.

Compare our artist's enhancement with the orginal image. Can you see it too?

  3. It's great to hear the tones of the spoken language, which turn the written language into reality.
