This is a picture of M51, which is nearby, through the infared spectrum. The dust that are highlighted when you move over the picture are what help to form stars. Also, much of the optical light was digitally removed. The resulting pattern is a creation of swirls all across the picture which is extremely aesthetic and appealing to the human eye. This M object lies about 30 million light years away.
