This nebula image necklace features the Cat's Eye Nebula (NGC 6543), which is one of the first planetary nebula discovered. The necklace is perfect as a unique gift. The image shows a gorgeous and rare bull's eye pattern of eleven or even more concentric rings, or shells, around the Cat's Eye. Each 'ring' is actually the edge of a spherical bubble seen projected onto the sky -- that's why it appears bright along its outer edge. The dust shells are created by the dying star, which ejected its mass in a series of pulses at 1,500-year intervals.

The bull's-eye patterns come as a surprise to astronomers because they had no expectation that episodes of mass loss at the end of stellar lives would repeat every 1,500 years.

The image is shot by NASA's Hubble's Advanced Camera for Surveys and released in 2004.
