Celestial Fireworks
Resembling the puffs of smoke and sparks from a summer fireworks display, this Hubble image depicts the delicate filaments debris from a stellar explosion in a neighboring galaxy. Denoted N 49, or DEM L 190, this remnant is from a massive star that died in a supernova blast whose light would have reached Earth thousands of years ago.
