Thoughts provoked

An unusually "perfect" cosmic corkscrew surrounds the binary star system LL Pegasi in a new   Hubble Space Telescope   picture released this week. Take a look !  Isn't this is coooool :)  Astronomers think t he spiral's evenly spaced rings are being created because one of the stars in the binary pair is dying. Unlike more massive stars that end their lives in explosive   supernovae , LL Pegasi is quietly shedding its outer layers of gas and dust to form what's called a planetary nebula. The dying star itself is still hidden by a dusty cocoon. But it's ejecting material at about 31,000 miles (50,000 kilometers) an hour, the researchers calculate, forming a new ring in the spiral every 800 years - wow! Oh! and for the star gazers,  for the next week or so sky-watchers in the Northern Hemisphere will have the chance to see an elusive celestial pyramid known as the zodiacal light.  False Dawn or  Zodiacal Light or what-so-ever.. this pic is just amazing! the
