Welcoming Halloween, NASA released spooky space images

To celebrate the 2013 Halloween festival (also known as the ghost festival), NASA released three unique, haunting space images taken by the Spitzer space telescope.

These images represent the "disembodied rest of the dying stars" , captured by the infrared light of the Spitzer space telescope. All three nebulae have interesting names, related to Halloween.

The second nebula called 'Jupiter's Ghost' , also known as NGC 3242, is located about 1,400 light-years from Earth in the constellation Hydra. Spitzer infrared rays show that the outer halo of this dead star is red. Concentric circles, which surround the object, are also the reason that materials are thrown during the time of the star's death.

And the last nebula is called 'Small Dumbbell' , the light emitted from them through hydrogen molecules. This is also the image that makes scientists most obsessed, because when they look at it, they envision the process of losing the "creepy" of stars.
