$145.00 – $265.00

If there’s one image in the Hubble collection that warrants a large scale print, this is it.  With an amazing 423,000,000 pixels,  our 32×48 canvas commands attention in any room.  Of course, smaller versions simply increase the intensity of the colors and subject.

Hubble’s view of the Carina Nebula shows star birth in a new level of detail. The fantasy-like landscape of the nebula is sculpted by the action of outflowing winds and scorching ultraviolet radiation from the monster stars that inhabit this inferno.

Product will be delivered as a Gallery Wrap over stretcher bars – ready for hanging.

Description

Hubble’s view of the Carina Nebula shows star birth in a new level of detail. The fantasy-like landscape of the nebula is sculpted by the action of outflowing winds and scorching ultraviolet radiation from the monster stars that inhabit this inferno. In the process, these stars are shredding the surrounding material that is the last vestige of the giant cloud from which the stars were born.

The immense nebula is an estimated 7,500 light-years away in the southern constellation Carina the Keel (of the old southern constellation Argo Navis, the ship of Jason and the Argonauts, from Greek mythology).

This image is a mosaic of the Carina Nebula assembled from 48 frames taken with Hubble Space Telescope’s Advanced Camera for Surveys. The Hubble images were taken in the light of ionized hydrogen. Colour information was added with data taken at the Cerro Tololo Inter-American Observatory in Chile. Red corresponds to sulfur, green to hydrogen, and blue to oxygen emission.

    Until you see it on your own wall it’s hard to believe. I ordered the 32″ by 48″ size and it takes my breath away. For this size you need a big wall, which I have, and you need to be able to stand back about 15 feet. But boy is it worth it.

    Thanks Hubble Art – well made, great colors, easy to order.
