Wallpaper Description:
ESO's Visible and Infrared Survey Telescope for Astronomy (VISTA) has captured this unusual view of the Helix Nebula (NGC 7293), a planetary nebula located 700 light-years away. While bringing to light a rich background of stars and galaxies, the telescope's infrared vision reveals strands of cold nebular gas that are mostly obscured in visible images of the Helix.
