Panning across Variable Star RS Puppis | Hubble
This video pans across Hubble observations of variable star RS Puppis. These observations show the ethereal object embedded in its dusty environment, set against a dark sky filled with background galaxies. RS Puppis is unusual. This variable star is shrouded by thick, dark clouds of dust enabling a phenomenon known as a light echo to be shown with stunning clarity.
