A planetary nebula, an extraterrestrial … or what?
What is the image? A planetary nebula photographed by the Hubble Space Telescope? A one-eyed extraterrestrial in a puffy spacesuit, floating over the colorfully glowing console of its spaceship? Or what?

One glowing eye peers through the spacesuit of an extraterrestrial floating over the console of its spaceship ... or is it a planetary nebula ... or what?
Or, could it be the outdoor lights on my boxwood shrubs under the worst snowstorm on the Mid-Atlantic Coast in 30 years!
