A spiral galaxy, seen partly from the side, with a messy, turbulent appearance. Its disc is made of multiple patchy arms that contain numerous sparkling blue and glowing red regions — star clusters and star-forming nebulae. Thick clumps of dark reddish dust swirl through the disc. The glow of the disc extends out into the dark background, where both distant and nearby stars can be seen.

A close-in view of a spiral galaxy that faces the viewer. Brightly lit spiral arms swing outward through the galaxy’s disk, starting from an elliptical region in its center. Thick strands of dark reddish dust spread across the disk, primarily along the spiral arms. The arms also contain many glowing, pink-red spots where stars form and clumps of bright-blue star clusters. Beyond its spiral arms, the galaxy is a bit fainter and speckled with blue stars.

An oval-shaped spiral galaxy. Only the center and lower half of the galaxy is in frame. Its center is primarily golden in color with a white glowing core, while its thick spiral arms are mostly blue, particularly at the outskirts; these colors merge in between. Dark lanes of dust swirl through the center, blocking some of the galaxy’s light. Stars and distant galaxies are visible around the edges on a black background.

An illustration of a young planet with a surrounding disk of dust and gas potentially forming moons. The planet, which appears dark red, is shown at lower right, circled by a cloudy, clumpy reddish orange-colored disk. The host star appears at upper left, and glows yellow, with its own reddish disk of debris. The disk that surrounds the planet takes up about half the illustration. The black background of space is speckled with stars. At the bottom of the illustration, graphics of molecules are listed in the following order: diacetylene, hydrogen cyanide, propyne, acetylene, ethane, carbon dioxide, benzene. The words Artist’s Concept appear at upper right.
