The Ring Nebula (also catalogued as Messier 57, M57 or NGC 6720) is a planetary nebula in the northern constellation of Lyra.
Ring Nebula. The Ring Nebula (M 57) is a planetary nebula about 2300 light years away from us. This is how it looks when a star blows its outer layers at the end of the life. If the star is not big enough to explode in a supernova, it will eject some of its mass as in the case of M 57, the Ring Nebula. The star in the centre of the nebula can still be seen, but it is passing through the last stage of its stellar evolution and is soon to become a white dwarf.
