BIG, BRIGHT, BUG NEBULA - NGC 6302
The sun and stars shine on all alike, and all delight alike in seeing them.
- Dan Benor
A true planetary humanity is a spiritual unity, a consciousness of being unified in our humanness and interconnections and at the same time proud of our diverse cultural identities and differences, differences that can only enhance our capacities for insight and creativity.

The bright clusters and nebulae of planet Earth's night sky are often named for flowers or insects, and NGC 6302 is no exception. With an estimated surface temperature of about 250,000 degrees C, the central star of this particular planetary nebula is exceptionally hot - shining brightly in ultraviolet light but hidden from direct view by a dense torus of dust. Above is a dramatically detailed close-up of the dying star's nebula recorded by the Hubble Space Telescope. Cutting across a bright cavity of ionized gas, the dust torus surrounding the central star is in the upper right corner of this view, nearly edge-on to the line-of-sight. Molecular hydrogen has recently been detected in this hot star's dusty cosmic shroud. NGC 6302 lies about 4,000 light-years away in the arachnologically correct constellation Scorpius.
