THE FINAL FRONTIER.

STARS

This is a very rare image, as they do not last for long. For many stars these radiant explosions only happen for a brief period in the life. (example on the left).

The blue central star, known as HD , is part of a triple system. It is the brightest of these stars with the others orbiting around it. This extremely hot star is loosing mass continuously from its outer layers. This picture shows the star giving an active outbursts that giving rise to the symmetrical shells

HD65750 is a SUPERGIANT star found at the centre of its nebula. The nebulosity around the star is caused by light reflecting of the surrounding dust. The dust is thought to consist mainly of silica particles condensed from the material wh i ch the star is loosing at a fast pace. The mass loss is more higher than a normal star. This mass is needed to make the reflection nebula IC 2220.
