Recently, NGC 7027's central star was identified in a new wavelength of light — near-ultraviolet — for the first time by using Hubble's unique capabilities. About the Data This image from the NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope depicts NGC 7027, or the “Jewel Bug” nebula. Das Objekt wurde 1878 von Édouard Stephan mit einem Teleskop der Sternwarte Marseille entdeckt. NGC 7027 is one of the visually brightest planetary nebulae. NGC 7027 is one of the smallest, brightest, and most unusually shaped planetary nebulas known. When new ejections encounter older ejections, the resulting energetic collisions shape the nebula. About the Image NGC 6302 and NGC 7027 These two new images from the Hubble Space Telescope depict two nearby young planetary nebulae, NGC 6302, dubbed the Butterfly Nebula, and NGC 7027, which resembles a jewel bug.
The near-ultraviolet observations will help reveal how much dust obscures the star and how hot the star really is. F343N, F487N, F502N, F656N, F658N, F673N, F110W, F128N, F130N, F160W, F164NThese images are a composite of separate exposures acquired by the WFC3/UVIS and WFC3/IR instruments on the Hubble Space Telescope. The mechanisms underlying such sequences of stellar mass expulsion are far from fully understood, but researchers theorize that binary companions to the central, dying stars play essential roles in shaping them.NGC 7027 is approximately 3,000 light-years away in the constellation Cygnus. Er befindet sich etwa 3000 Lichtjahre von der Erde entfernt im Sternbild Schwan.

For much of its history, the planetary nebula has been expelling shells, as seen in blue in the featured image. 316.8 KB Wide-field image of NGC 7027 (ground-based image).
NGC 7023 ist die Bezeichnung eines den Irisnebel enthaltenden offenen Sternhaufens im Sternbild Kepheus nach Nomenklatur des NGC-Katalog.NGC 7023 hat eine Winkelausdehnung von 10' × 8'. NGC 7027 is one of the visually brightest planetary nebulae.It is unusually small, measuring only 0.2 by 0.1 light-years, whereas the typical size for a planetary nebula is 1 light-year.The expanding halo of NGC 7027 has a mass of about three times the mass of the Sun, and is about 100 times more massive than the ionized central region. Given its expansion rate, NGC 7027 first started expanding, as visible from Earth, about 600 years ago. Recently, NGC 7027's central star was identified in a new wavelength of light — near-ultraviolet — for the first time by using Hubble's unique capabilities. Several filters were used to sample narrow wavelength ranges.
The object had been slowly puffing away its mass in quiet, spherically symmetric or perhaps spiral patterns for centuries — until relatively recently when it produced a new cloverleaf pattern. It is best viewed with the highest magnification possible.
30 observations between Nov 2019 and Apr 2020 This mass loss in NGC 7027 provided important evidence that stars a few times more massive than the Sun can avoid being destroyed in In a 6" telescope at around 50× it appears as a relatively bright bluish star.
