The Heart and Soul nebulae are at far left. This image is from NASA's Wide-field Infrared Survey Explorer (WISE). The colours show wavelengths of infrared light. Blue and cyan represent 3.4-micron and 4.6-micron light emitted from stars. Green and red represent 12-micron and 2-micron light from dust and gas nebulae. Image published in 2012 | |
