The Butterfly Nebula NGC 6302 Wall Art SPACE But its passive-cooling design hasHubble was recently retrained on NGC 6302, known as the "Butterfly Nebula," to observe it across a more complete spectrum of light, from near ultraviolet to near infrared, helping researchers better understand the mechanics at work in its technicolor "wings" of gas. The observations highlight a new pattern of near infrared emission from singly ionized iron, which traces an S shape from lower left to upper right. This iron emission likely traces the
