The Cat's Eye Nebula has been imaged in unprecedented detail by combining views from the Euclid and Hubble telescopes, revealing a bright central region surrounded by a halo of gas fragments. The image shows the nebula's complex structure, including arcs and filaments, as well as a ring of gas ejected from the star at an earlier stage. The nebula is set against a backdrop of distant galaxies, highlighting the connection between local astrophysical processes and the broader cosmos.
