宇宙惊现'上帝之眼'(图)

Astronomers have taken a stunning photo of a nebula (see photo) and called it the Eye of God, according to the UK's Daily Telegraph. The object is actually a shell of gas and dust that has been blown off by a faint central star, lying around 700 light-year away in the constellation of Aquarius. The photo was taken with a giant telescope on a mountaintop in Chile.

英国《每日电讯报》称天文学家最近在宇宙深处拍摄到了一个壮观的星云(见图)，并命名为"上帝之眼"。该景象实际上是一个衰亡中的恒星释放出的气体和灰尘，位于离地球约700光年的宝瓶座星系。这张照片是在智利的一座高山顶上用巨型天文望远镜摄下的。
