Sounds Like a Twlight Zone Episode

A Star the mass of our sun but only as large as a small town...  Colors not explained and apparently Lucy wasn't available to fill in the blanks...(Blues are usually Oxygen, Greens are Helium and Orange/Reds are Hydrogen and/or Sulphur)

Anyway, click the image to go to the APOD site, get more info, click again and again and get the high resolution image where you can play Find the Pope in the Pizza.

    1. Z, well, Lucy was supposed to Splain it to us. and Finda the Pope-a Ina the Pizza is just a way to get folks to explore this crazy topsey turvey mixed up nebula in greater detail and hopefully find greater inner peace with themselves.
      Just a passing thought. Or two.
