Description

The Bubble Nebula, also known as NGC 7635, is an astronomical object located in the constellation Cassiopeia. It gets its name from its distinctive bubble-like appearance, which is created by a massive, hot star at its center emitting intense stellar winds and ionizing radiation. These forces push the surrounding interstellar gas and dust outward, forming a spherical shell or bubble.
