The Eta Carina Nebula is
one of the largest diffuse
nebula visible from earth, 4X
bigger than the great Orion
Nebula, but much less well
known, given its southern
hemisphere location. The
so-called Keyhole Nebula is
visible towards the center, as
is Eta Carina itself, a star
which briefly became the 2nd
brightest in our skies, after a
huge outburst in 1841.
Contrast this image of the
nebula with the RGB version,
visible with a mouseover.
