WISE Says ‘Merry Christmas’ With a Nebulous Wreath
NASA’s Wide-field Infrared Survey Explorer (WISE) is getting into a festive mood this Christmas after imaging a beautiful nebula called Barnard 3, or IRAS Ring G159.6-18.5.
Nicknamed the “Wreath Nebula” by mission scientists, Bernard 3 does have some familiarity with the green and red wreath hanging peacefully on your neighbor’s door. But looks can be deceiving.
