NGC 3375 (Eta Carinae Nebula) as pictured by hubble

The Eta Carinae Nebula (also known as the Great Nebula in Carina, the Carina Nebula, or NGC 3372) is a large bright nebula which surrounds the star Eta Carinae, one of the most massive and luminous stars in the galaxy. The nebula lies at an estimated distance between 6,500 and 10,000 light years from Earth. It is located in the constellation of Carina. The nebula contains multiple O-type stars.

Reason: Best hubbble image I have seen.

Strong support. Excellent quality, adds greatly to the article. Amphy 16:37, 25 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Very Strong Support This is a fantastic picture. There is a truely remarkable depth of detail. It is both aesthetically pleasing and scientifically fascinating. The Bok globules, the lobes of Eta Carinae, the visceral impression of the violence associated with the birth and the death of stars. (Particularly very large O-type stars.) This is one of the best astronomical images of all time. (Although that is a large list.) Calen716 18:09, 25 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
