🖐️ A Giant “Cosmic Hand” Revealed in New NASA Image

NASA’s Chandra X-ray Observatory has revealed a striking hand-shaped nebula called MSH 15-52.
At its heart is a rapidly spinning neutron star only about 12 miles (19 km) wide, yet the enormous nebula it powers stretches more than 150 light-years across.
New radio and X-ray data are helping astronomers better understand this unusual remnant of an exploded star.
