Planetary nebulae are lovely, ephemeral objects created as a dying star lets go of its outer layers, blowing them away in stellar winds. This fuel normally cools and disperses inside 20,000 years. However the Methuselah Nebula (MWP1), 4,500 light-years away in Cygnus, has defied expectations and seems to be 150,000 years outdated, primarily based on its measurement (additionally massive) and how briskly the fabric is increasing. This picture was taken with a 20-inch scope at f/7.7 in Hα/OIII/RGB filters with publicity occasions of 410, 270, 90, 90, and 90 minutes, respectively.
