A spiral galaxy’s whirling arms fill the image. The yellow galactic core is visible at the bottom center of the image, with arms arcing upward. Dark-brown dust and bright-blue stars lace through the spiral’s arms. A foreground star with diffraction spikes shines at the lower-right side of the image.

A black, deep space image is dominated by what appears to be a large snowflake-like feature with a bright white core and 8 pinkish orange spikes. It is surrounded by additional wisps of pinkish orange and blue gas.

An illustration of Sun-like star HD 181327 and its surrounding debris disk. The star is at top right. It is surrounded by a far larger debris disk that forms an incomplete ellpitical path and is cut off at right. There’s a huge cavity between the star and the disk. The debris disk is shown in shades of light gray. Toward the top and left, there are finer, more discrete points in a range of sizes. The disk appears hazier and smokier at the bottom. The star is bright white at center, with a hazy blue region around it. The background of space is black. The label Artist's Concept appears at lower left.
