NASA photos show giant cosmic hand

(CNN) — New photographs released by NASA have captured images of a vast stellar formation resembling a human hand reaching across space.

The image, taken by NASA’s space-based Chandra Observatory telescope, shows an X-ray nebula 150 light years across…

NASA says the display is caused by a young and powerful pulsar, known by the rather prosaic name of PSR B1509-58.
