RCW58 & WR40 (LRGB & HOO) nebula

RCW 58 and its equally beautiful, gigantic star WR40 (Wolf-Rayet 40 named after the French astronomers, Charles Wolf and Georges Rayet) with a mass 100 times greater than our sun and a million times greater brightness, not to mention a surface temperature 30 times higher than our morning star.

The image looks amazing, as if a cosmic "star-eating" monster was devouring the aforementioned star with its powerful mouth. The object is located in the constellation Carina in the southern sky. The central star WR 40, accelerates its atmosphere at a dizzying speed of about 100 kilometers per second, and the ejected outer layers evolve into an expanding oval nebula known as RCW 58. We observe this phenomenon in astrophotographic exposures in the RGB and HO bands.
Apparently, stars of this type have a point of honor - to live full throttle and die young.
