Nebulae : NGC-6369 : Little Ghost Nebula

Little Ghost Nebula, NGC-6369. NASA's Hubble Space Telescope has caught a glimpse of a colorful cosmic ghost, the glowing remains of a dying star called NGC 6369.

The glowing apparition is known to amateur astronomers as the Little Ghost Nebula because it appears as a small, ghostly cloud surrounding the faint, dying central star.
