Pan of Star AG Carinae | Hubble
This video showcases a pan of star AG Carinae from the NASA/European Space Agency Hubble Space Telescope.
The star is waging a tug-of-war between gravity and radiation to avoid self-destruction. AG Carinae is surrounded by an expanding shell of gas and dust—a nebula. The nebula is about five light-years wide, which equals the distance from here to our nearest star, Alpha Centauri.
Distance: 20,000 light-years away
