Phoenix on Space Carina Nebula - universe backdrop Samsung Galaxy S3 Covers
Galaxies, Stars and Nebulae series An awesome mobile phone skin with a stylized Rising Golden Phoenix and featuring the 7,500 light year distant Carina Nebula. This Hubble image shows rich, interstellar gas clouds feeding the formation of new stars. As a proto star forms, the gas clouds get dragged to its surface and some gets emitted as tight jets of material travelling at hundreds of miles per second. These in turn help sculpt the gas clouds into weird and grotesque shapes, some looking like strange worms, swimming through space.
