A Cosmic Fundraising Soundtrack

9,000 years ago a Milky Way star exploded in a supernova, leaving behind the Veil Nebula. This nebula is physically huge, containing one filament, NGC 6960, known as the Witch's Broom Nebula, and another, NGC 6995, known as The Bat Nebula.

The Milky Way is warped. Our galaxy’s wobbly disc might be the result of a tilted halo of the universe’s mysterious dark matter. Or the cause might be the psych/space-rock radio waves of Space is Deep.

LDN 43 is a nebula which bears an astonishing resemblance to a vast cosmic bat flying amongst the stars on a dark Halloween night. In the constellation Ophiuchus, this molecular cloud is dense enough to block light from background stars.
