This composite image includes red light emitted by hydrogen as well as visible and infrared light. The Ring Nebula is an elongated planetary nebula, a type of nebula created when a Sun-like star evolves to throw off its outer atmosphere to become a white dwarf star. The Ring Nebula is about 2,500 light-years away toward the musical constellation Lyra. via NASA <a href=\"https:\/\/apod.nasa.gov\/apod\/ap210818.html\"><\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Ring Nebula (M57), is more complicated than it appears through a small telescope.
