SOMEBODY SEDATE ME

"If there's one thing I can promise to the universe, here it is: I'd take one lovely day with you, even if it meant being in pain for a thousand after."

The Butterfly Nebula, created by a dying star, was captured by the Hubble Space Telescope in this spectacular image. Observations were taken over a more complete spectrum of light, helping researchers better understand the “wings'' of gas bursting out from its center. The nebula’s dying central star has become exceptionally hot, shining ultraviolet light brightly over the butterfly’s wings and causing the gas to glow.
