| description  = The colorful demise of a sun-like star.  This image, taken by NASA's [[Hubble Space Telescope]], shows the colorful "last hurrah" of a [[star]] like our [[Sun]]. The star is ending its life by casting off its outer layers of gas, which formed a cocoon around the star's remaining core. [[Ultraviolet light]] from the dying star makes the material glow. The burned-out star, called a [[white dwarf]], is the white dot in the center.
 
The image was taken Feb. 6, 2007 with Hubble's Wide Field Planetary Camera 2. The colors correspond to material expelled by the star. Blue corresponds to [[helium]]; blue-green to [[oxygen]]; and red to [[nitrogen]] and [[hydrogen]].
