This is by far the most detail I've ever seen in the Eskimo Nebula.
The big image (the one you get by clicking on this image) is HUGE and takes a while to load. Be patient; it's worth it.
As always, ask to be added to the APOD PING list OR
subscribe to the General Interest topic "Astronomy Picture of the Day"!
