EMISSION NEBULA
"Emission nebula. Melipal Very Large Telescope image of an emission nebula around the star BAT99- 2. The colours correspond to ionised gases: oxygen (green), hydrogen (red) and helium (blue). Helium emission indicates that the star causing the nebula to glow is very hot. BAT99-2 is a Wolf- Rayet star; a large, hot star with a powerful stellar wind."
