NGC 7635 - The Bubble Nebula in Hubble Color Palette
The Bubble Nebula, in the constellation Cassiopeia, is created by a massive star approximately 40 times more massive than the sun blowing out material into space. The dense gas surrounding the star is forming the cast off material into a bubble. The nebula is 6 light-years wide, expanding at 4 million miles per hour and is 7,100 light-years from Earth.

This image is a false color narrowband composite using the Hubble Space Telescope color palette where Red = SII, Green = Ha and Blue = OIII.
