Description

Did you know a Nebula can work out?

If so, such nebula is the Dumbell Nebula. Partially because it looks like a dumbell, it does not work out. 

The Dumbbell Nebula, a nearby planetary nebula residing more than 1,200 light-years away, is the result of an old star that has shed its outer layers in a glowing display of color. It is a planetary nebula -the type of nebula our Sun will produce when nuclear fusion stops in its core-.
