The bright blue pupil and the white of the eye are fringed by flesh-coloured eyelids - but this eye is so big that it light takes two and a half years to cross from one side to the other.

The object is actually a shell of gas and dust that has been blown off by a faint central star. Our own solar system will meet a similar fate five billion years in the future.

It lies around 700 light-years away in the constellation of Aquarius, and can be dimly seen. one of the most iconic celestial images in astronomy it producing a molecule integral for the formation of water, a process that could be repeated across the cosmos.
The core becomes a hot white dwarf pouring out ultraviolet radiation into its surroundings. This radiation can be so intense that it can actually destroy molecules that have been thrown out by the star — molecules bound up in the rings of material seen at the outer edge of planetary nebulas.It can exceeding temperatures of 100,000 degrees Celsius and produce OH+.
One of the nearest planetary nebulas to our Solar System, are a distance of 700 light years away.
This nebula, which burns at 120,000 degree's contains a rich variety of molecules.
