1995 (continued)

• 11/2/1995 STScI-1995-44 111. Embryonic Stars Emerge from Interstellar "Eggs" Eerie, dramatic pictures from the Hubble telescope show newborn stars emerging from "eggs" — not the barnyard variety — but rather, dense, compact pockets of interstellar... (More)
• 4/10/1995 STScI-1995-13 112. Oxygen-Rich Supernova Remnant in the Large Magellanic Cloud This is a Hubble telescope image of the tattered debris of a star that exploded 3,000 years ago as a supernova. This supernova remnant, called N132D, lies 169,000... (More)
• 2/20/1995 STScI-1995-11 113. Hubble's Close-Up View of a Shock Wave from a Stellar Explosion This Hubble telescope image shows a small portion of a nebula called the "Cygnus Loop." This nebula is an expanding blast wave from a stellar... (More)
• 1/11/1995 STScI-1995-01 114. Hubble Probes the Complex History of a Dying Star This Hubble telescope image shows one of the most complex planetary nebulae ever seen, NGC 6543, nicknamed the "Cat's Eye Nebula." Hubble reveals surprisingly... (More)
